i was just wondering at what stage of development the proposed large scale alco c-415 center cab switcher is at . we are looking forward to seeing the prototype model. we will be waiting impatiently.
Dear Spla,
???
the Bach-man
My sentiments exactly Bach-Man ???
Uhh, i think ur thinking of the williams maybe? or even an aristo craft/mth c-415 (which ive never even heard of) :-\
that doesn't seem to be the type of loco Bachmann models in Large Scale. gj
I dont think anyone has a C-415 in the works..
and when a Large Scale Alco Century is eventually offered, it would make NO sense whatsoever to make the first one a C-415..
the most obscure and ugliest, by far, of all the Century models:

a classic C420, C424, C425, C628, etc, would make WAY more sense..
MUCH better looking than their unfortunate little sister..(the C415)
and when one is eventually offered, it wont be made by Bachmann..not their area of interest..so this thread makes no sense on many different levels..
I cant WAIT for an Alco Century to come out! ;D
been hoping for one for 10 years now..(as long as I have been in the hobby)
I will have to have about 6 of them..
Lehigh Valley Alco C420 set.
Lehigh Valley Alco C628 set.
