Märklin Central Station Free Update Now Available
Earlier this year Märklin GmbH announced a new software and hardware update for the 60212 Märklin Central Station. We are now accepting Marklin 60212 Central Stations for shipment to Märklin Inc. to perform the update.
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.
How do I submit my Central Station for update?
All Canadian consumers who purchased Central Stations from Westend Trains Inc. should be sent to our store for forwarding to Märklin Inc. for upgrading free of charge.

How long will it take for the update?
Depending on the quantity of Central Stations that are submitted to us at a given time, we expect to receive completed Central Stations within 5 to 6 weeks. We will do our best to minimize that time frame, however we are entering our busiest season, therefore the turnaround could be longer.
