Märklin Central Station Free Update Now Available


In 2007 Märklin GmbH announced a new software and hardware update for the 60212 Märklin Central Station.

What are the features of the update?

In addition to the programming of routes, the update also includes a connection for the s88 feedback module to provide feedback on operating status, along with connections for digital devices of the predecessor generation, 6021 Control Unit as well as the 6015/6017 Booster.

Furthermore, from now on the Central Station will also include push/pull train control. It will also be possible to activate the stop command for the locomotive and the function for brake squealing via a soft key located directly on the touch screen monitor.

The Central Station has also expanded back-up functions: Thanks to storage capability on the computer, user settings and data can be backed up and read back in.
