Does any Model train manufacturer make the GF6C (In BC Rail scheme) besides the overpriced $1,000 model by Overland Models? Please and thank you. :)

Having consulted the 2016  Walthers HO Reference   No one is currently manufacturing   An  Amtrak Cascade  engine  .  The  Cascade  Engines  should be F42 PH or Genesis  Engines, or F59phi   engines  .  You also need the transition  cars   to connect from the trains to the talgo  cars  . None of these  cars are in production either  .   While   is a great  looking  train  . it would be  expensive to  manufacture  .    John 2.

Well I agree with you being expensive to manufacture the cars, Athearn a long time ago they make a Amtrak cascades F59phi engine, but I wonder why they stopped making it, because it is exactly like the Amtrak Surfliner scheme just recolored. I just wish a company would make the engines again.

Is any company right now making a Amtrak cascades F40PH or F59phi? If not then this is a suggestion to Bachmann. Please and thank you. :D

I'm thinking about buying the DD40AX by Bachmann. Could somebody tell me the radius that is recommended for that locomotive? I have 24" curves on my layout. Please and thank you! :)

I'm starting N scale but don't know what set to get. In a shop near me they the Bachmann Thunder Valley set, also they have the FT diesel locomotive McKinley explorer. I would like to know which one is better. Thank you! EDIT: Oops, sorry, F9 diesel. :)

Happy 4th of July to anyone that has read this post! :) Already saw a Canadian themed train!

Hello, I'm new to the Bachmann train forums, What are your favorite Locomotives? Mine is the F40PH, or the SD40-2. EDIT: Actual trains.
