Joined: 07/03/2006(UTC) Posts: 232 Location: Australia		On a number of occasions I have tried to look up items on Marklin's Product Databas by entering the catalogue number only to find that there it says that no record found even though the item exists or once existed. I find it very frustrating. Fair enough that they may not have detaild information (perhaps), but they should at least acknowlege that the item once existed and show a photo. Until they do (if ever) does anyone know of alternative websites that have a Marklin database, preferably with pictures?

Although it doesn't allow [xx(][xx(][xx(] download of pictures to your gallery, you can print the data pages, at least ... surely won't buy this half-assed solution, again [xx(]
