News from Marklin GmbH to update Central Stations:
This was received from them:

Update-Information CS 2
Gebr. Märklin & Cie GmbH
Postfach860
D-73008 Göppingen
Germany Seite 1
www.maerklin.de
Version 4.2
New Possibilities and Features of the Central Station 2
(Item No. 60213, 60214, or 60215) with Software Update 4.2
The following items are included in the update to Software Version 4.2. for the
CS 2:
1. Expansion on corresponding locomotive decoders from the previous 16 functions up to 32 functions.
2. Addition of new engineer's cabs to the mfx+ World of Operation mode.
3. Adjustment of certain operating characteristics for the CS 3 procedures.
Expansion of the Number of Locomotive Functions
With decoders of the current mLD3 and mSD3 decoder generation, it is now also possible to switch up to 32 locomotive functions with the CS2. All standard models, which are equipped with more than 16 locomotive functions, can now be fully controlled too.
For models with DCC decoders, the upper limit is 29 functions. The decoders must also be prepared for a correspondingly high number of functions.
Please note, that the Mobile Station connected to the CS 2 still has its previous limit of 9 or 16 functions depending on the device generation. The various apps and the PC software in the current version cannot switch these additional functions (yet).

Important: If models with more than 16 functions have already been registered with the CS 2 before the update, they must be registered again after the update. Only after this step are all functions then available. A decoder reset also produces the same result.

Additional Engineer’s Cabs in the World of Operation

The following engineer’s cabs are now available with the update for the CS 2 for fans of the World of Operation mfx+ mode:
 Powered catenary maintenance rail car
 Rail bus

Update-Information CS 2

 Class Re 4/4 I
 Modern diesel locomotive
 Older diesel locomotive like class V140 / V16, V188
 Older electric locomotive class Ae 8/14
 Diesel powered rail car train like class VT08, VT11.5
 American diesel locomotive F7
 Diesel powered rail car train class 628
 Electric locomotive class 103
In the World of Operation mfx+ mode itself as with the CS 3, only 3 different operation types are still available:
A) Without consumption
B) Consumption
C) With refueling
The standard mode for new World of Operation mfx+ locomotives is now mode A) without consumption.
Please note that this update will be used to update all engineer’s cabs. In individual situations, this may result in the update taking up to 45 minutes.
Adjustment of Certain Operating Characteristics of the CS 2 to the CS 3
This modification relates primarily to the behavior of the s88 contacts. When the program is started, the states of all existing L88 or s88 contacts will be determined. If the state is not clearly defined, the respective contact appears in red in the display. This corresponds to the behavior already introduced for the CS 3.
We hope you will enjoy exploring the new possibilities of your CS 2.

Zweites H0 Club-Modell 2017
Second club model H0 2017
 


Erstmals haben wir die BR75 (ex bad. VIc) in H0 realisiert und sie mit vielen Details ausgestattet, mit denen das Modell bei den Clubmitgliedern punkten kann.
Die komplette Neuentwicklung besticht u.a. mit ihrer filigranen Metallkonstruktion, serienmäßig eingebautem Rauchsatz und zahlreichen angesetzten Griffstangen und Leitungen aus Metall. Das hohe Gewicht der Lok wirkt sich sehr positiv auf das Fahrverhalten und die Zugkraft aus. Erreicht wird dies durch massiv ausgeführte Wasserkästen und einen schweren Lokomotivrahmen. Die Geschichte des Vorbildes ist spannend, waren doch einige Maschinen in Mecklenburg oder sogar bei der Berliner S-Bahn im Einsatz. Ein wahres Prachtstück also, das wir gemeinsam unseren Clubmitgliedern anbieten können. Bitte beachten: der Bestellschluss für das Modell ist der 31.8.2017 – weisen Sie jedoch Ihre Kunden darauf hin, dass wir das Gewinnspiel aus organisatorischen Gründen nur für Bestellungen bis zum 30.6.2017 anbieten können. Denn dann hat man die Chance, auf den Märklintagen im September eine Mitfahrt in einem von der BR75 gezogenen Zug zu gewinnen. Mehr dazu in den Club News.
 
Wir unterstützen die Präsentation dieser Lok wieder mit einem Sonderprospekt, der Sie in den nächsten Tagen erreichen wird, sowie einer optisch sehr ansprechenden 3 D Darstellung in unserer mAR Augmented Reality Anwendung, bei der einige Funktionen ausprobiert werden können und die Lok aus allen Richtungen in Augenschein genommen werden kann. Bitte beachten Sie auch das passende Wagenset (41324) ebenfalls exklusiv für Clubmitglieder sowie die Gleichstromausführung für Trix Clubmitglieder. (22793).
 
 
A world premiere: The series 75 locomotive (ex bad. VIc) in H0 for the first time from Märklin. Beautifully detailed it will be a must have for club members. Made from completely new tools, it scores with its filigree construction, factory installed smoke unit and numerous separately applied metal grab irons and lines. Marvelous pulling power from heavy construction of the water tanks and the locomotive frame. Also its prototype is exciting: some of the models have served in the early Berlin commuter railway system. Really a great locomotive we’re offering to our club members. Please consider: the order deadline of this model is august 31st 2017, however, there is a competition to win a ride in a series 75 pulled train on IMA / Märklin days in September where – due to organizational reasons – only those ordes may take part in the raffle, which are already in by june 30th 2017. Read more in the Club News.
 
The presentation of the model is supported by a special brochure, which will be available within the next days and our mAR Augmented reality app. With this app you’ll be able to try some of the features or to have a 3D view on the model from different angles. Please also consider the passenger car set to go with this model (41324) or the DC version of the locomotive (22793) from Trix.

Auswirkung der neuen Rauchgeneratoren auf Kaltdampfbasis auf das Raumklima
 


Die neue Technik der Rauchentwickler auf Kaltdampfbasis, wie er zum Beispiel in der neuen Lok 36431 eingebaut ist, hat bei dem einen oder anderen Modellbahner zu Bedenken geführt, dass diese zusätzliche Feuchtigkeit ja eventuell zu einer verstärkten Korrosionsgefahr führen könnte. Lassen Sie uns daher bitte einige Fakten zum Raumklima vorstellen.
In einer Wohnung entstehen jeden Tag je nach Größe und Anwohnerzahl durch das Kochen, Duschen, Geschirrspülen und der Feuchtigkeitsabgabe von den Bewohnern und Pflanzen etc. eine zusätzliche Wassermenge in der Luft im Durchschnitt von 10 l bis 30 l. Jeder Mensch allein gibt pro Tag ca. 1 l bis 1,5 l Wasser über seine Schweißdrüsen und seine angefeuchtete Ausatemluft an die Umgebung ab. Die geringe Wassermenge im Milliliter-Bereich, die durch den neuen Rauchgenerator hier hinzukommen kann, ist daher eine vernachlässigbare Größe. Genauso wenig wie eine an der Modellbahnanlage eingenommene heiße Tasse Kaffee noch die Anwesenheit des Bedieners selbst die Korrosionsgefahr messbar erhöht, wird daher auch diese neue Technik problemlos nutzbar sein. Wer sicher gehen möchte, sollte für eine ausreichende Lüftung im Modellbahnbereich sorgen. Dies ist aber nicht wegen der neuen Rauchgeneratoren notwendig, sondern sorgt für die Beseitigung der erhöhten Luftfeuchtigkeit aus den vielen sonstigen, viel prägnanteren Quellen und war daher schon immer ein notwendiges Mittel zur Regulierung der Luftfeuchtigkeit. Tipp: In einem Modellbahnraum sollte die Luftfeuchtigkeit übrigens idealerweise bei 50 % liegen.




The effect of the new on a cold-steam based smoke generators on the room climate.
 


The new technology of smoke generators based on cold-steam, as installed, for example, in the new model 36431, has led one or the other model railway to consider, that this additional moisture might possibly lead to an increased risk of corrosion. So let us introduce some facts about the room climate.
Depending on the size and the number of inhabitants, an additional quantity of water in the air will be generated in a flat by cooking, showers, dishwashers and the constant moisture release of the inhabitants and plants on average from 10 liters to 30 liters every day! Every human being is exposing to 1 liter to 1.5 liters of water through its sweat glands and its moistened exhaled air to the environment. The low water quantity in the milliliter range, which can be added here by the new smoke generator, is therefore a negligible quantity. Just as little as a hot cup of coffee taken at the model railway system, or even the presence of the operator itself, the corrosion risk is measurably increased, therefore, this new technology will be easily usable. If you want to be safe, you should ensure adequate ventilation in the model railway area. However, this is not necessary because of the new smoke generators, but it removes the increased air humidity from the many other, much more powerful sources and has therefore always been a necessary means for regulating the humidity. Tip: In a model railway room, the humidity should be about 50%.
