Finally got a picture to post ...

IMG_9802.JPG

It looks quite cream coloured in the picture, but looked more like an ivory or off white. I took this shot specifically angled so you can see that the roof colour is the same as the side of the coach behind.

Here is the car carrier ...

IMG_9803.JPG

The ones on the top deck are Peugeot (405?), Audi and Rover 3500 V8. I can't make out the ones on the bottom deck, and don't know which one is missing compared to the NI brochure.

As shown in the Märklin brochure, at the bottem of the coach, the gold car, is a VW Passat Variant (station wagon).

The black one looks like a German Ford 17m. Just saw another picture and it also could be an Opel. It is a strange model and by a picture not really identificable. Berkina (the producer as Märklin is writing in its brochure) did not make a good black model.

The missing blue one is a second Audi 80 as you see on top of the coach. All these models are from the sixties/seventies.

Hello Alan,


Thanks for your interesting image of the new-items car carrier:

UserPostedImage


The image of the Rover 3500 V8 caught my eye and I really liked it.Wub We have fond memories of one we had in the very early 1980's
(my eldest son sitting on the bonnet is now ages 38 yrs!) It was a great car and went like a rocket Laugh :

Unsurprisingly the car is represented on our layout (a Brekina model - it has great detail) :

The manufacturers are listed in the brochure. The assortment of cars are spread across about 5 manufacturers, with most wagons having cars from two different manufacturers.

Perhaps marklin will include this also in their "Museum" series (MHI special series of 5 unique museum locomotives), just like the 37212, the V140.

That is one way of producing more locos for what may be an otherwise limited number (a bit like the Bellingrodt and Borsig series).

Here another picture,this time gauge 1 from German maker KM1,just to show what a beauty this loco is:

http://www.km-1.de/Galer...beiderbaureihe65003.html

Km1 has some other superb models too,if you can afford the prices:

http://www.km-1.de/Galer..._5/br01_5_galerie_2.html

I am willing to believe the second insider could be a class 65 steamer but looking at my rather old series 86 ("The egglaying wool milk pig") that one could use an update too.
Let us wait and see.

60226 image.

Screenshot (8).png

English Translate

Märklin-info service: combination of two or more devices of the cs3 / cs3+

One of the special features of the current central station generation is the possibility of linking several of these devices to a panel From CS 3 (no. 60226) only one device can be integrated in such a network. From CS 3 + (no. 60216) several devices can be used here.

This current generation is characterized by a very extensive data exchange in this mode. A CS 3 with a CS 3 + resp. Two CS 3 + can therefore not only be achieved using a cable 60123 In addition, there must be an exchange of data between these devices via a network A router with appropriate lan connections is used. This router does not need to be connected to the internet. Its task is to organize only this network at the modellbahnsteuerung. All Cs3 Resp. CS 3 +, which are integrated in this system for the modellbahn, will be via LAN Cable (No USB! ) connected to the router.

At the start of the system please follow the following order:
Enable 1. Routers
2. Master (CS 3 OR CS 3 +)
3. Second unit CS 3 +

When the central station is activated, the required network is given by the router. Please don't intervene manually.
If a CS 2 is used as a zweitgerät, it is still sufficient for this connection to be connected via Cable 60123

Tip: this router is also very well suited to integrate devices like a smartphone, a tablet, pc or a laptop into this network. This connection may also be made via Wi-fi.

Important note to the latest hardware version (05-2018) from 60216 + 60226:
Since May 2018 a new hardware version of 60216 + 60226 is available for märklin in delivery. The new version differs only externally. Instead of the märklin digital logo, there is now a modern cs3 and modern. Cs3+ Logo Printed and additionally the 3 Digital Formats (mm / Mfx / DCC) above the stop button. Technically there are no differences between the old and the new version. Märklin has waived the märklin logo in favor of the and lgb customers to make it even more clear that this modern headquarters is intended for all customer groups (Märklin / Trix / LGB). Is suitable.

OK, sketchy in places translation but I think the point is clear:

The CS3 family got a cosmetic only upgrade in May 2018 and onward to remove the Märklin name and an added protocol label to more clearly indicate the controller can be used across multiple systems and protocols. Electronically they are the same as they were before, only the outside shell styling changed in the printed on labels.

Right - basically just rebranding to try to show capabilities that were already there.

You can attach multiple clients to a CS2 through a router also, so there is nothing really new being reported from what I can tell. If I were a user who didn't understand how this network topology worked though, I doubt that this explanation would solve the problem. BigGrin

I have found that the startup sequence is important, as they explain. If my CS2 boots before my router initializes I have to bounce the CS2 to get communications going. Just a race condition which is common in software systems, but hardly obvious to people who are not technically oriented.

Märklin could really use some good technical writers to translate the capabilities of their digital systems into language that more users can understand. I only bought a CS2 in 2015 and I was surprised at what a capable little machine it is, even if they have a really hard time explaining how it works.
Regards,
Jim

I have almost all Märklin and mostly HO, although I do have a small number of Z gauge trains!
So many trains and so little time.

Indeed thought that can be solved easily enough (I would hope) by either a power switch that powers the router up and then at some delay of 10 seconds or so before it powers the rest of the power strip up (gotta build something like that as a project likely)

OR

Just use static IP addresses, so the router doesn't have to be online to give the various Central Station their network info.

OR

as you said, manually be the timekeeper and remember the sequence.

Websites of Marklin Germany and Marklin The Netherlands are out of the air this morning because of "maintenance".
Is "breaking news" approaching?

Could the second insidermodel 2018 still be a steamer series 78.10?
Series 78.10 is basically a series 38 with a 2 axle tender,the model was earlier issued for Minitrix,perhaps Marklin uses the data for other scales too?

Märklin should have renamed its controller instead just doing a little bit cosmetics. Do not want to know how many peolpe expect stone, concrete, steel and tracks while ordering a central station.LOL

It looks beautiful! However, over 400 euro is a lot of money for a tank engine! Does it have a lot of new features?

I'll wait to see if a cheaper version comes out next year, and maybe get one without sound if they do one.

I find myself in a similar position Ray.

Over the last year I have seen a number of new Märklin items which looked interesting until I checked the price. Then I find that although they are nice enough locos they seem to cost more than I can justify. I don't expect to see a cheaper version in the future however, since premium priced models appear to be the wave of the future at Märklin these days.

The higher prices would be easier from me to accept if I had not had so many issues with so many of their products over the last two years. I don't mind paying for quality and perhaps this is where things are headed at Märklin right now, but they had better get a handle on their quality control if they want to command such high prices for their products.
Regards,
Jim

I have almost all Märklin and mostly HO, although I do have a small number of Z gauge trains!
So many trains and so little time.

Hi, It can't be 39650 as that was the insider model for the elephant loco.

It is the art #39650 for the 2nd Insider model 2018. Got today the Märklin e-mail for it.

Then I checked your Elephant loco, the SBB C 5/6: at Märklin it is listed under article #39250.

https://www.maerklin.de/...te/details/article/39250

400 numbers differenceCool and not an Insider model.

An Elephant loco has been an Insider model? When? A quick search showed me only the 37563

https://www.maerklin.de/...te/details/article/37563

as an Insider model in 2012. Too long ago - I was an Insider member not yet.

Do you got other informations? Which Insider Model do you mean?

That loco along with those coaches will make a very nice, if expensive train. I have to think a bit more before I vote in that poll

I have never seen a cab control car for a steam hauled train before. Was that a common practice? I don't understand how you could drive a steam loco remotely from a cab control car but I bet that someone here on the forum can enlighten me. BigGrin

Does not answer Jim's question, which is a good question.

Märklin is writing in its brochure a different thing about the cab control:

Märklin wrote:
„A Premiere in Märklin‘s Model History!“– The components of the shuttle
train control and the digitally controlled red marker light on the rear of
the coalbunker." [End quote Märklin brochure]
