Marklin/Trix 2009 Pre-Order Program Details

Our Marklin/Trix 2009 new item prices have recently been posted. With our pre-order program, you gain the following advantages by placing your reservation orders now;

1. Your order is automatically part of the initial new item delivery release by Marklin/Trix when placed prior to March 31, 2009. We place our large volume orders at the Toyfair each year thus ensuring virtually the same delivery time as European dealers enjoy. Why is this important? Many items are one time releases; other regular catalog items can have a short production run to minimize factory inventory levels and thus, some dealers receive items and yet others do not. They end up waiting for the next production batch to be released.
2. Orders received prior to March 31, 2009, with a minimum $600.00 Cdn. value will receive free shipping within North America on their first delivery. (As 2009 new items arrive, they are shipped promptly).
3. Your order is only charged when shipped and only for those items that are shipped.
4. As always, your ordering allows you to take advantage of the Train Miles Rewards Program.
5. You can rest assured that you are dealing with one of Marklin's oldest and largest dealers in North America. We are now in our 19th year of business with thousands of customer's world-wide in 84 Countries including many in Germany! Before your Marklin or Trix locomotive is shipped, we thoroughly test each one. Your items are then carefully prepared for shipping where our packaging is second to no one.

With the recent turn of events with respect to Marklin’s insolvency, there has been much speculation as to the future of this great company and even this industry. Rest assured, Marklin/Trix will continue on!

At the first morning of the Toyfair, the Trustee director gave a brief interview reassuring the public and the dealers at the Toyfair that Marklin/Trix will continue on. The name Marklin is virtually a household name throughout Western Europe with more brand recognition then many of the largest German Car Manufacturers and this they will not let go of. Highlights noted were ALL 2009 New Items - Production and marketing costs as well as staffing costs have all been funded. They are currently in negotiation with several potential investors however, they made it quite clear that they will want ownership that understand this very unique industry and manage it accordingly. It is becoming all to clear that the previous ownership/management let Marklin down to its current insolvency status. In response to the plight of Marklin at the time of their insolvency announcement, Europe has come to the rescue of Marklin. Marklin is currently enjoying a flood of new ordering well beyond that of the previous Christmas buying season! The bottom line is, you can rest assured that your investment in this fine Marklin/Trix product line will always continue and that you will always be able to build on and expand your Model Railroad layout. Of course, you will always be able to count on EURO RAIL HOBBIES & MORE for its commitment to delivering quality product with the Customer Service you’ve grown to depend on.

So, welcome to the exciting 2009 New Item Marklin/Trix Program.
