Does anybody know when they will make an update to the CS3+ that when you select English language, that EVERYTHING, including the tutorials, will be in English? I don't speak German and it makes things a bit tricky. I can't remember the number update I am on, but I did the last automatic update 10/9/2017 so I'm guessing it's the latest.

They haven't even translated some of the screens on the CS2 to English yet, so the CS3 might be a long shot.....

It is not understandable why Märklin doesn't have the CS2, CS3 and CS3+ with full English text.

It is not practical at all to go to Google translator anytime a message in German appears in the CS.

I am not going to a German language course to better play with any CS.

I didn't buy a CS3 yet.

Best regards,

If you have a smartphone, you can download a translation app which can utilise the camera on your phone to scan viewable text, to give you an instant translation.

But you are right, we should not have to be in a situation where this needs to be done!

True. Also because the Google translation from German to English is often quite approximate and sometimes meaningless.

You cannot blame Google if the German text makes little sense in the first place. And a general translator will always have problems with domain-specific terms.
