Why have Bachmman or Atlas  not produced curved tunouts??? Atlas did make them years ago!!

simkon

Atlas still does make them, they are just harder to come by since the factory they were made at closed temporarily.

Atlas dosn't list them as one of there products!???

If your loco is too heavy to lift, you'd better be able to ride in, on or behind it.

That is because the factory is anticipated to remain closed until the end of next year due to labor disputes.
