This is the update many of you have asked for and been waiting patiently to arrive. From their newsletter: "As promised we have added the new Marklin controller CS II (60213) to our range. For a long time we have been running with CS I, but users who shift can apply CS II immediately with exactly the same setup and layout files. We recommend to couple CS II directly to the house router and to connect the PC via the router. This is the most stable interface. A really cool thing about CS II is the option of building and showing a track layout locally. We do not yet have this in GT-Command, but then we have an excellent automation functionality which together with the voice control extends the options with CS II very much. Both interfaces can be downloaded from our download section at Forum in version 1.6 and is free of charge for existing customers."

GamesOnTrack VOICE CONTROL for your trains! http://www.eurorailhobbies.com/erh/latest_news_detail.asp?id=526 One of the most innovative and unique products we discovered at this year's Toy Fair was the GamesOnTrack system.

Thu, 26 Feb 2009 00:00:00 GMT http://www.eurorailhobbies.com/erh/latest_news_detail.asp?id=525 Marklin/Trix 2009 Pre-Order Program Details http://www.eurorailhobbies.com/erh/latest_news_detail.asp?id=523 Our Marklin/Trix 2009 new item prices have recently been posted. With our pre-order program, you gain the following advantages by placing your reservation orders now; Your order is automatically part of the initial new item delivery release by Marklin/Trix when placed prior to March 31, 2009. We place our large volume orders at the Toyfair each year thus ensuring virtually the same delivery time as European dealers enjoy. Why is this important? Many items are one time releases; other regular catalog items can have a short production run to minimize factory inventory levels and thus, some dealers receive items and yet others do not. They end up waiting for the next production batch to be released. Orders received prior to March 31, 2009, with a minimum $600.00 Cdn. value will receive free shipping within North America on their first delivery. (As 2009 new items arrive, they are shipped promptly). Your order is only charged when shipped and only for those items that are shipped. As always, your ordering allows you to take advantage of the Train Miles Rewards Program. You can rest assured that you are dealing with one of Marklin's oldest and largest dealers in North America. We are now in our 19th year of business with thousands of customer's world-wide in 84 Countries including many in Germany! Before your Marklin or Trix locomotive is shipped, we thoroughly test each one. Your items are then carefully prepared for shipping where our packaging is second to no one. With the recent turn of events with respect to Marklin’s insolvency, there has been much speculation as to the future of this great company and even this industry. Rest assured, Marklin/Trix will continue on! At the first morning of the Toyfair, the Trustee director gave a brief interview reassuring the public and the dealers at the Toyfair that Marklin/Trix will continue on. The name Marklin is virtually a household name throughout Western Europe with more brand recognition then many of the largest German Car Manufacturers and this they will not let go of. Highlights noted were ALL 2009 New Items - Production and marketing costs as well as staffing costs have all been funded. They are currently in negotiation with several potential investors however, they made it quite clear that they will want ownership that understand this very unique industry and manage it accordingly. It is becoming all to clear that the previous ownership/management let Marklin down to its current insolvency status. In response to the plight of Marklin at the time of their insolvency announcement, Europe has come to the rescue of Marklin. Marklin is currently enjoying a flood of new ordering well beyond that of the previous Christmas buying season! The bottom line is, you can rest assured that your investment in this fine Marklin/Trix product line will always continue and that you will always be able to build on and expand your Model Railroad layout. Of course, you will always be able to count on EURO RAIL HOBBIES & MORE for its commitment to delivering quality product with the Customer Service you’ve grown to depend on.

This year brings new tooling for HO models of the DRG BR74.0-2, K.P.E.V. T11, and the DRG BR19.1 (including an Austrian version!) along with a new DRG 6-axle tank car and an Italian peak rook box car. We think that Brawa models are some of the most finely detailed out there, rivaling the detail that one gets from brass models many times more expensive. Brawa also offers a lot of variety with most of their locomotives available in 4 distinct versions, DC and Marklin AC standard models as well as both DC and AC versions with full digital sound (and smoke for steam locomotives). Pricing for all new items will be posted very soon but you may place pre-orders now to reserve your place in line for new models. We do require payment information to be entered however we will not charge you until the items arrive. Click here for the complete list of Brawa 2009 New Items Brawa HO New Items Brawa N Scale New Items From the Brawa new items brochure: Welcome to a new round of exciting new products. The new items catalogue is even more comprehensive than before. In 2009 we are launching a total of 111 new locomotives, wagons and lamps, as always distributed over four quarters. The HO gauge is the traditional leader; here we present 21 locomotives including four new moulds: the steam locomotive BR 74.0-2 of the DRG, the T 11 of the K.P.E.V., the BR 19.1 of the DRG and the sister locomotive of the BBOe. In our range of new wagons we present interesting mould novelties too, especially within the freight cars - for example the tank car six-axle of the DRG, the covered peak roof car of the FS, the milk car of the K.Bay.Sts.E.B. and the open freight car Omm 52 of the DB. With all our models, maximum attention to the original features and fine detail are also on board. In N gauge, a total of 19 new products are put on the rails, including the passenger coach of the DR ("Reko" car) as a mould novelty. Incidentally, no model railway fan has to do without BRAWA's dedication to detail. This is because all our models for gauge H0 are available for direct and alternating current and therefore suitable for all conventional rail systems. This will also interest all model railway enthusiasts and BRAWA fans: Our free e-newsletter, which always provides you with the latest news on new models and many other subjects from the BRAWA world. You can subscribe to it for free at www.brawa.de But now we wish you lots of enjoyment with 111 new models over 68 attractive pages!

In the past Marklin and Trix have been very secretive about new items right up to the opening of the February Toy Fair (despite the inevitable leaks each year!). All-in-all it looks like a great new items program for both brands with some special pieces such as the Marklin BR 23 steam locomotive and the new mega starter set with THREE full trains, including the new rail bus. The HO starter sets for 2009 all see new controllers, either a completely redesigned mobile station or a simpler wireless controller in the smaller sets. Z scale fans will be happy to see a slightly increased number of new items from 2008 including a double swiss Crocodile set for the 150th anniversary of Marklin. N-scale modelers finally get a digital version of the K.Bay.Sts.B. class BB II 0-4-4-0 steam locomotive from Minitrix and HO Trix fans get their own version of the class 23 steamer. Trix and Marklin HO modelers with a lot of room on their layout will love the huge (45 inches long!) model of the Marklin Goppingen Factory. NOTE: If you would like to pre-order before pricing is announced in order to reserve items early, you can the items to your cart and checkout as usual.
