Do any Marklin locomotives (like C-sine) incorporate flywheels or is all momentum controlled digitally?

From memory I think only the Big Boy incorporates a flywheel,as far as steam loks go(??)
Your right Märklin uses digital control for momentum.

Well, you can actually see the rotor of the classic Märklin motor as a built in flywheel, especially with the LFCM motor. But the brushes in those motors are effective as "brakes" for the rotation so the effect is not apparent.... The newest motor, the C-sinus, has the rotor constructed for a flywheel effect too. But when you run digital, momentum is always controlled digitally...

The 33644, 33645, 33646,37641 and 37645 (MaK Diesel) and
similar models have flywheels. Unfortunately the 37xxx versions
of these models don't have true digital control of the momentum
(at least not the 37645 I have).

Same is true of the 37550(BR55) no flywheel but poor momentum control.The 'newest' 37554 performs much like a 60901. It has a Faulbi-type motor
