If you get a 37521 and 37522 and treat them well one day they may grow to be as big as 3956xSmile

I concur in this assessment. It has been a long time since there was a crocodile insider - maybe they are waiting on something special to go with it ??

Maybe an MHI item ??? We know that Q1 MHI is the Prussian P8 ?? What about Q2-Q4 of this year.

I would certainly love to see this item with moving pantographs, and mfx sound !!!

I am REALLY fighting the urge to buy a 3956X in the hope that they come out with an MFX/sound/updated version very soon. I know I'll probably be happy with this model anyway, so I'll gamble by waiting for an unbeatable price or an updated model. I would love for my two trains to grow into a large family!!!

Hi

I would like to see a retooled version of the crocodile with mfx and interior cabin details. And maybe a different wheel arrangement, such as the BE 6/8 II.
Will Märklin ever oblige?

Greetings,
Armando

No problem - so #39221 could be your ticket. This grey Super Gator is one of the very best C-Sinus sound locos ever made by M ... Cool

This model (39221) represents no real improvement in that there are still no cabin details and the positionning of the headlights is wrong for era II.

I have 39561. It runs very well.

But I also think that the 37xxx-versions with the five star motor run very smooth.
I have converted all my Swiss crocs to 60901 and 60921, of course except for the 39561 biggrin

I also have the 39221, and 3300. I have converted the German croc from 3300 with 60924. Both locos run very well.

I still will not spend my money for a one sounded crocodile that is a regular series locomotive.

But if they made it into a snowy brown crocodile and made it very limited - then it would be for sure !!!!!
