Central Station

The Marklin 60215 is still awaiting FCC approval, they are not legally for sale in the USA right now. Expected delivery is June or July.

In addition to the widely used protocols Motorola, mfx, and DCC, the Central Station combines 2 locomotive controllers for easy, convenient control of locomotives, in addition to a large color touch screen. The representation of locomotives can be done with color images. Furthermore, the Central Station has a built-in Märklin Digital locomotive database as well as 2 built-in locomotive card readers (for saving locomotive data on a locomotive card or for quickly calling up a locomotive by inserting its card in the reader). Mfx locomotives are automatically recognized and taken into the locomotive list with all of their characteristics. There is also a powerful booster for providing power to the layout for train and accessory current, 20 Keyboards (DCC: 128) for controlling up to 320 (DCC: 2,048) solenoid accessories, a track diagram control board as well as a route controller (including shuttle train control), all of this built into the Central Station.

Charlie's Tip: Our Central Stations will carry full US licenses and FCC approvals. When you decide to purchase the new Central Station, make sure that you get the Central Station with FFC approval and Marklin USA warranty!
