Hi I wonder if you can help me . I have a large hornby 3 rail track set up and want to motorise my marklin 3 rail turntable 7186 which I have. I was advised to get the 6915 which has cost me £240 BUT I haven't got any wiring diagrams for the 7186 so don't have a clue how to connect the 2 together - does anyone have any experience advice please. I'm over 70 and a pensioner and can't afford to write this off Thank you in advance

I don't know where you got that advice - whoever told you that is misinformed in my opinion. The 6915 would work with a Marklin 7286 turntable which is the equivalent of the Fleischmann turntable that controller is designed to work with. The 7186 has a very different motor arrangement.

No. They are both 3 rail turntables. The older 7186 has 10 fixed exit locations, while the 7286 has 48 possible exit locations.
