Automated Märklin station traffic...

Some discarded footage from the main channel ( / @the3rdrail ).
We follow Märklin 3054, 3058, 3153, 3353, 3553, 3371, 3654 as they travel though the stations on my m-track analogue layout.
Class 120 and friends on the main channel:
• Just in! Märklin 3553 ...
No music, just train and track noises...

About the layout:
- It is a temporary set-up I use to run my collection of old trains, nothing is screwed down. The rolling stock was made in the 1980s, the tooling is often older, so is the track system.
- It is analogue, 16V AC
- The locomotives are all analogue -> no motor regulation, no individual speed control
- The speed is set centrally in a way that all trains can make the ramp to the elevated section.
- Automation is done with relays, stopping is done by cutting power to isolated track sections
- a small "Braking" effect before stopping sections is achieved with diodes, this is to avoid trains jumping signals
-> things are going fast in places, the stop/departure behaviour is not realistic by today's standards.
If I was interested in realism, I would collect something newer and would install scenery... The point here is to experience the models as one would have when they were new, using the functionality available at the time, with all the flaws it entails.
