Thanks, just ran over to the Trix site and they are releasing a few new items as well, most mirroring what Marklin have released.

I hope that Circus stuff is aimed at the kids!

Hi Simon,

I think the circus stuff is aimed at Grandparents and kids.

Great cheap way to get kids into the hobby. Bullet proof locomotive that runs and runs and runs.

Why couldn't they have released some more Thomas the tank engine stuff?

Hi Neil,

I saw the Bavaria version of this in Frankfurt a few years ago. It was simply stunning.

However is was about DEM6,000 and was truely a work of art.

Hi John,

I saw some pictures on the net of it. It certainly is a work of art. Oh for a lottery win.

Cheers

It is the 26001 ICE 2 Train Pack with the Mobile Vision VR Headset that has tickled my fancy.

Nice aluminium briefcase too, probably with a not so nice price tag.................

 

[steventrain]

The 26001 price was RRP 849.95 Euros.

 

[john woodall]

Yeah but that is the RRP.

The big Internet dealers will no doubt sell it a bit cheaper than that.

But what a truely cool bit of kit. Nor if they could put it into a steam locomotive . . . . . . . . .

Here is an official note from Walthers/Marklin USA regarding 29411 Circus Mondolino and Mobile Vision set:

Circus Mondolino

Last spring the 29410 starter set was discontinued and replaced with the 29411 starter set, which has an infra-red controller. Marklin GmbH has been working to get FCC approval for the infra-red controller but it is taking longer than anticipated and they will not be accepting orders for Circus Mondolino products from distributors outside of Europe, until FCC approval is received. Therefore, Walthers will not be able to fill backorders for Circus Mondolino products and backorders from the spring will be cancelled, and orders will not be accepted for the new Circus Mondolino products shown in the Fall New Items brochure.

Mobile Vision 26001

The situation with Mobile Vision is similar to the Circus Mondolino situation the transmitter in the Mobile Vision system needs FCC approval. Marrklin GmbH hopes to have FCC approval in 2009, and will then offer the product outside of Europe
