Heislers - tell me when... ???

Tomcat · June 16, 2012, 01:17:36 AM

Hello there folks,

Bach-man: Can you give us a release date for the new Heisler locomotives yet?
I thought they may already be on the return trip, but no word in here yet...

Would be awesome if we could please could have any kind of information
as I´m sure there are masses of folks out there waiting for them to arrive.

Cheers, Katercat

Perhaps in July?

Can we at least have some updated photos to drool over?

Any chance of letting us know, please?

Dear All,
I am anxious as well!
As soon as I have news I'll post it here!
Thanks!

This has been the longest running of the Heisler in the works which started long long ago. How many years does it take to produce an engine ? I gave up and that will be it for I do not need a Heisler any more. Besides the other geared engines had problems and some still wait for me to fix them ( about five of them ) so I don't need more engines to fix before running them. Costs too much to mail and insure them back to Bachmann from Big Island of Hawaii and they do not pay for that, not one penny !!!!

There are many nice freight cars that Bachmann makes and I have a lot of them. No problems there at all... Six boxes of log cars (18) for the one engine I have that runs.

I just read a note from John Weigal, owner of the Peterboro RR, that the Heislers are scheduled for LATE Fall. John does talk with the Bachmann brass a lot and his info is usually accurate.

so, basically the end of the year? Oh, just in time for xmas.That figures.

Lemurien · June 27, 2012, 07:34:29 AM

Fall of weach year?

Sarcasim, bourne of frustration is starting to creep in now. Thankfully we are model makers with a lot of ( declining ) patience.

I'm going to speculate that Mr. Riley will provide us all with an update/delivery date at the NMRA bash, along with the announcment of new goodies.

Linzthom · June 27, 2012, 06:47:28 PM

For all us non Americans, when is that, please? Thanks.

The sound boards for the Heislers are out from Tsunami, and according to most stores, November is the due date.
