Is there any easy way to do this. I have set up a S88 on the list (don't really want it on the track board) The Marklin book on the CS3 goes on for several pages without really giving anything on what should I would have thought been a simple set up. Any easy step by step would be great if it is possible.
		Take care I like Marklin and will defend the worlds greatest model rail manufacturer.

I am almost certain that it is also possible with the CS3 Drawback of this method : you need to write this command chain for each loco you want to stop and select the appropriate one Note: with s/w like Rocrail you can write a general program which will do this for any (or selected ones) loco in the specified bloc in a much simpler manner. Cheers Jean

This will save a lot of reading through the Marklin book which although good does tend to spend time telling us what it does and how good it is rather than just instructions as you have given.
