Another great video - thank you. I'm learning my way around the intricacies of Marklin analogue and your videos are very helpful and a bit of an inspiration. Your maintenance sequencies help a lot and I find that I now can 'dive in' with a lower chance of wrecking things. Today has been a strip down and clean up of the triple solenoid 7041 signal which was a lot of nail biting fun. A very ingenious little mechanism. Got there in the end and it works as it should. I find your videos encouraged me to have a go and that is what it is all about. Merry Christmas and best wishes for the new year.

Good heavens, your collection is again just astounding, very much like a library of a certain era with intriguing surprises. The 34158 seems to be a Delta decoded loco to our understanding. The lights seem to work on analogue though but dim. Delta still does confuse us. We've been told that on some of the Delta locos the lights work on analogue with brightness depending on speed, and on some they don't work at all. No idea. We still avoid them as it is new terrain here for us. Delta seemed to have been continued for a very long time though. Perhaps we should have a closer look. Anyway, fantastic items in your collection even out of your 1980s scope. We wish you a very happy Xmas 🎄🎅🎁

With this loco the brightness depends on the speed. It is officially equipped with "Universalelektronik", the name that came after delta, when Märklin discontinued analogue only locomotives in the mid 1990s. I think this remained on offer for the following 10-15 years or so... Thanks for the visit. Best wishes.

I think there are even some 34xx that aren't Delta :-o The delta decoders I know have four small switches but someone told me the early ones hadn't and address changes had to be made by opening and closing soldering connections. And some needed a certain switch setting for analog operation.
@lindaoffenbach8 ай бұрын
@@jochenkraus7016 Thanks. We've just checked this at 3rail Wiki. That's in Dutch but I can read it (was born there) The 6603 decoder (Delta) came in 2 series. The 1st has these soldering points. 2nd Series 4 dip switches indeed. For the 1st series the brightness of the lights depend on speed on analogue (no lights when standing still). So yeah, that someone seems to be correct.

Very nice. The steam engine is pretty great. But my personal highlight of the video is actually the track cleaning train. It is an extremely nice, little set. Though it is depicted like this on the box it is actually supposed to run backwards, if I recall correctly, with the locomotive being turned around and pushing the train. But it's a very nice one either way.
@The3rdRail4 ай бұрын
Always nice to learn something new, 🙏
@The3rdRail4 ай бұрын
Thinking about this a bit more, a strict push configuration seems unlikely, imagine the overhead of having to turn anything around before each assignment, especially at a time when turntables were already a thing of the past... Not the same shunter, but you'll like this page I think😉: rail.lu/events/200906TrainDesherbageReseauArcelorMittal.htm
@TeeJayDesastron4 ай бұрын
@@The3rdRail What I meant is that the loco would run with the control cabin at the end of the train either pulling backward or pushing forward. The #1 car has a control cabin, so I think we can safely assume that the train can be controlled like most modern trains from whichever end is convenient. I didn't express myself correctly before, but that is essentially what I meant.

Dear "The 3rd Rail", It is always a great pleasure for me to see your videos. These always reflect your special relationship and great sympathy for Märklin models. This is part of the appeal of your explanation of the products and especially your personal comments. Please keep it up! I wish you a Merry Christmas Best regards P. S.: One question: are you writing from Great Britain?

it is running analogue here, I do have digital control equipment... in a box... 😉 I might get it out some day... see kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2fYiHR9bLCGncU (fast forward to 4m 30s). Thanks for the visit today!
