[@mcgomez441]

Great video Jim. That is an impressive bit of kit.

[@BastiaanBlinksma]

Fantastic item, ...great purchase,..

[@StormmyStormmy]

Hi, this is still a serious piece of miniature engineering that still holds up to today’s model crane offerings, I just wonder what we will see next form the European masters of model railways.

[@hovermotion]

Just ordered a nice item from Germany not a train thow..

[@howarth004]

That is a monster Crane Jim , I`ll say this Trix sure make some good railway items , and they all seem to have working parts , that crane and its working parts are spot on , lifted the loco no problem

[@BurtonOnHumber]

Great review of a really lovely bit of kit... Impressive lifting ability and am impressed how it packs itself away so nicely as well. Good piece of German engineering all round. You must be well chuffed owning that! :) - Sim

[@hovermotion]

Hi dave , waiting for a update for your new world in the attic....the detail is mind blowing on this crane , its finished off my crane collection now....

[@hovermotion]

Thanks sim, i just love stuff like this it works almost like the prototype, theres so much detail on it, my plan is to automate a work sequence when i get the software for the p.c so it can control itself on a sideing just to show famaly & friends etc. Mega chuffed that now have aquired this item...thanks jim..

[@atidas80]

I curious, this crane can lifting a complete locomotive? I think example Br 211/212 or another loco.

[@hovermotion]

Hi It can lift a tank loco ,212 etc no problem..

[@trainsmad12]

[@alexmallaev4911]

Greetings from Mountain View, CA! Are these still in production? Or, you can get them only on eBay? That's an awesome price of machinery, what are they running for (whereabouts)?

[@hovermotion]

Hi , Marklin have stopped making these cranes. You can still get them second hand on ebay. The prototype worked in Germany.

[@hovermotion]

Hi scott , they stopped makeing it years ago it was on a limited production run ,there is one on ebay germany now on auction beware it holds its value and will end at the price it sold for years ago lol.......jim

[@hovermotion]

Thanks rob, its a model ive been after for years as its a rare model to find..

[@thebritfarmer]

that is simply amazing. Do you know if they still make this or one similar?

[@Bruno.Trains]

Very nice model.

[@hovermotion]

RAILsIMAGES theres a new version now.

[@wizardgaming669]

Fantastic. Never seen this in Canada, we rarely get Trix brand here.

[@hovermotion]

Hi there, it's also available from marklin but in three rail which can be converted to two rail (by changing the wheel sets). Its a great item......jim

[@wizardgaming669]

I moved to Canada from Denmark. We have finally started getting Marklin Trix and Heljan over here. Normally we had just American, Canadian and Japanese brands. I brought my N scale with me.

[@hovermotion]

Cool....there are a few big importers of continental in the u.s

[@wizardgaming669]

Canada actually gets model train stuff from Europe before the USA does. Usually 6 months ahead.

[@hovermotion]

Interesting. ..

[@DuEHobbyfilmer]

nice presentation.

[@hovermotion]

Thanks ...likewise..

[@hovermotion]

Many thanks...jim

[@SuperFrecciaNera]

You control the crane on your layout, with your original TRIX box control (min 3:40)?

[@hovermotion]

no..as I have digital command center...that box was used before digital command centers were available ....Jim

[@SuperFrecciaNera]

+hovermotion But the crane does not have a standard DCC decoder!!! Which digital command do you have?

[@hovermotion]

+SuperFrecciaNera yes this crane works perfectly with my esu ecos..

[@SuperFrecciaNera]

+hovermotion Work perfectly with the ecos without extra equipment or modifications to the crane?

[@hovermotion]

SuperFrecciaNera yes see my latest vid

[@mijiajosef3270]

Hi can you help. I just bought a marklin model. It seems to be for 3 rails. How exactly can it be converted for 2 rail operation? Thanks in advance

[@hovermotion]

Mijia Josef change the wheel sets to trix two rail....they can be bought on ebay germany...jim

[@liebherrdemag5544]

Why change? If you have the AC unit(marklin) just sell it to me, and just buy a new D.C. Unit (Trix) will be better! Else you void the warranty!

[@gregg4164]

Would be nice if the auxiliary hoist worked.

[@sparky107107]

found the video.. I just didn't go back far enough. so are you still happy with this purchase? do you still use it? play time? would you buy it still, if you going to buy it for the first time ( today ( ?

[@hovermotion]

sparky107107 yes as its a highly collectable item..the new version is dcc sound..it works perfect ..I plan to automate this crane soon but it great fun to use manualy..

[@프라모델채널]

@@hovermotion HI~! im.. TRIX 23540 DC+AC..Compatible?

[@hovermotion]

@@프라모델채널 this version is d.c but you can convert with a.c wheel sets...

[@sparky107107]

maybe you can help me. I just bought this crane. and it don't seem to work on NCE system. and under side has a metal pic up that looks to be for 3 rail. box says HO scale, .. product 49954. and no control system with this one either.

[@hovermotion]

sparky107107 if the box says marklin then you have the three rail version.. you would have to mod it by changeing the wheel sets to two rail... it works via its on board dcc marklin chip ,functions for the boom control and then using the throttle .

[@brandonwagner3873]

Cool

[@hovermotion]

Thanks....

[@TotallNotTrev]
