I use a MRC Tech II 2400 on my layout to run two trains at one time, I have run two sets of Proto 1000 F3ABAs with no problem using this powerpack.

I am glad to see that Bachmann released the E7A without sound and DCC, I just picked up a Union Pacific E7A and it is a good looking and good running locomotive. Too bad that the SD70ACE and ES44AC were not released without sound and DCC, if they were I would pick up a few more of them.

Is Bachmann planning any other numbers for the Bachmann Union Pacific E7A other than 989?

Is the front wheel truck from the Bachmann HO 2-10-4 available for sale?

Will the shell from Bachmanns HO scale Alco S4 fit on the frame of the Alco S2?

I have Bachmanns 8-40C and 8-40CW and I run them on 18r ez track with no problems. On my layout I have two ovals the outside one has 22r ez track and the inside one has 18r ez track connected by turnouts.

I picked up a unlettered HO scale 2-8-4 and are there decals for this locomotive?

I have 3 trucks with wheels from Bachmanns amfleet cars if you need them.

I picked up a older spectrum HO scale F40PH at a garage sale for $6.00 and the railing on the rear of the locomotive was missing, I  checked the parts list here on the online store and no listing. Where I can I find one? The locomotive runs good.

On the next run of the GP30s how about some Conrail locos and some different numbers for New York Central.

I just bought a new Bachmann GP30 and was impressed by the detail on it, almost as nice as the Proto 2000 GP30 I have. My only complaint about this locomotive is the lack of a window on the right side.

I agree about the sound value locomotives, not everyone wants sound. To me the sound gets annoying after a few minutes. I have a Bachmann SD70ACE and a ES44AC and unhooked the sound. Instead of sound Bachmann could have added working ditch lights and a little better detailing.

On my layout I have 22r curves and my Kato SD80MAC and SD90MAC run with no problems.

their is two headlights in the front of the 2-8-4 I have and the wire that connects to the lights was disconnected.

I got the headlight to work on my 2-8-4.
