The little sign translates as: RC Freight Train set, with light, portal crane, and about 6 meters length of track.
Looks like a fun set, probably pretty pricey though.

Wow! Thanks for posting the picS...I'll fly to Germany and buy one myself if I have to! It looks like a great set, especially fun for outdoor use ;)

Does anybody know the set number for this one?

I just want the roof   :)

Seriously, I have 4 trains missing roofs (and smoke stacks of course!), 2 work trains and one diesel and one 4057 locomotive all which are either out of stock or discountinued. 

Hopefully, they'll make these into sets to be released by playmobil next year to refresh the train line.  They didn't have anything new in it this year  :(

Thanks for the number Customizer! I'll be on the lookout for this one.

Hi Knight Train, I have managed to amass a small box full of parts locos that were bought mainly for roofs and smokestacks! Last month I bought a roof separately for my small western train from an Ebay seller. You almost never see those available separately...

Thanks much for sharing this find Andi!  I'd certainly hope that the set (or at least the engine!) makes it to the US sooner or later; there's been a dearth of Train stuff coming from Playmobil.  (and this makes me hold off on crazy ebay bidding of that loco, now that it's available R/C)

Many thanks for this Andi,

I was hopping that they would expand the conlines sets. Although am a bit disappointed in the grey overhear crane it would have looked great in the green to match the harbour crane with the Conlines logo on the crossbeam. And the container would have been great in the blue or yellow to match the tipping ore truck. But that's just my opinion. I hope that the container flat car and container will be available separately and that they will release one of the trucks/lorry with the conlines markings to carry it. Also just checked EBay and no one has any listed yet ??  :o very strange.

Regards
Craig

This is just a marketing strategy. The THW sets and Karstadt sets were also marked with prices, they never cost before. 8}
