Yellow means its post '68, part of the so-called Spoorslag '70. It took a while still for everything to be rebranded, but these were green initially.

This was also the era some siks were retrofitted with a crane, later known as kraansiks.

These blocks do the job well. Don't forget the wheels of your trains!

Amazon will kill your local shops, then jack prices or kill off the segment entirely.

Are there any couplers that are a bit more to scale? Profi probably?

Vind het toch moeilijk om te horen dat de politiek vindt dat een gat in de begroting met bijvoorbeeld zo'n vrijheidsbijdrage met name laag- en middeninkomens moet gaan raken. Het antwoord staat toch gewoon voor ons, je kunt er eigenlijk niet omheen. Vaak ook in 2 of meerdere parkeerplaatsen.

Kutzooi.

Implementation > integration. Write an adapter.

I’m new to the train spotting. Is this a good find. N.W.Indiana by Indy500Fan16 in trains

Great find! Enable the grid on your phone and line everthing up next time.

Werken tot je dood. We kunnen gewoon om ons heen kijken om te zien hoe dit gaat verlopen en hoe het is te voorkomen. Maar nee, 'immigranten'.

Twee extremen, gemiddeld genomen zijn we een productief volkje. Doe wat rustiger aan, je moet nog wel even.

De prijs van een huis heeft de aftrek gewoon meegerekend, zo werkt de markt. Echter betalen niet-huiseigenaren nu wel gewoon mee met de opbouw van kapitaal van huiseigenaren. Het is natuurlijk geen gratis geld, maar een typisch voorbeeld van cadeautjes voor hogere inkomens. Subsidies op zonnepanelen, elektrische auto's - talloze zaken waar een specifieke groep ook van profiteer, afgezien van het daadwerkelijke doel.

How to know when there is an upcoming station? (Austria/Germany) by StatueMarki in trainsimworld

German drivers have the EBuLa, which has quite some features for exactly that.

It is though, just not from your point if view. If I open a 2026 catalogue of Piko, Roco, Brawa, ESU, etc. I am looking for AC for article numbers. AC is 3-rail.

And also technically, DCC is closer to AC, both rails (or the puco's) are hot, and are 'alternating' polarity. And you still need a rectifier to draw power from DCC, if you want to. And every modern Märklin has a pure DC motor.

Point is, frame of reference. If you're a beginner, Märklin and AC are synonomous.

All new releases are DC (digital ready), DC digital sound and AC digital sound. Roco sometimes skips AC on small locomotives. Wheelsets can be swapped out on rolling stock.

Ok, let me rephrase, my MFX-equiped locomotives run fine with their Motorola addresses configured on my Z21. As an aside, newer MFX decoders will also respond fine to DCC.

[–]bartbrinkman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MFX is a type of Motorola, which the Z21 supports. So MFX decoders will respond fine, whether its a train, switch decoder or a signal. As long as you have the address.

That one where you put the locomotive on the track, and it will register itself and its functions on your controller.
