Title: U36B
Post by: S.C.L.EDDIE on January 21, 2010, 06:10:59 PM
Just wondering when Bachmann will re-tool the U36B? How great it would be to have a more accurate model of this locomotive. Seeing as Bachmann is the only company doing a plastic model of this locomotive and the recent retool of the DD40 I figure maybe it is time for an updated U36B. I sure could use several in Seaboard Coast Line black and yellow. I still have my Spirit of ' 76 and Auto-Train locomotives.

I agree, U36B needs upgrade the most. It looks like a push-pull toy train, not a N scale engine. It's also very popular, i think a lot of us would upgrade it.
