MÄRKLIN H0 conventional driving and electromechanical automatisation

The Prototype   Märklin-H0-Knowledge   Layout-Building   Modelstock

Introduction

This site is still brandnew and under construction

As a model railway enthusiast, I had looked around in various Facebook groups. Permanent annoyances were the missionary attempts to persuade analogical drivers to use digitally technology. That's why I founded a german speaking group for exclusively analogical and electromechanical technology for Märklin H0 railways.

I am using the term “conventional” instead of “analog” as Märklin does in their product documentations. My opinion about the term “analog” I wrote on the page “My view concerning the term “ANALOG””.

Facebook disapoints when it comes to the possibilities of designing content. Therefore, I try to present my past and future articles here in a better form.

As I am a German travelling in international groups too, I put this page parallel in German and English, perhaps soon also Dutch.

I thank my friend Axel Wurl for his support and help by translating these articles.

What is waiting for you here?

What excites me about the railway, what interests me, I show under "The Prototype".

In the Facebook groups, where I’m member of, I try to teach beginners the basic Märklin-knowledge - to be found here in the topic complex "The very first basic knowledge about conventionally controlled Märklin H0 model railways".

I am of the opinion that almost everything that is possible today with digitally model railways can also be realised analogically - or better: - electromechanically. I try to prove this in the topic "Circuits for advanced users - Automation of Processes".

I have compiled the special features of the 3 Märklin H0 track systems and those of the prototype under "Special knowledge about tracks".

In 2022 I started planning my layout, that shall fill an entire room. That was preceded by a long period of reading and learning and thinking. The insights shall be presented in the topic complex "Layout planning and construction".

From time to time, I have taken a closer look at individual models in my Facebook group. Other authors do the same. I gather these descriptions in the "Modelstock".
