Hi all,

Please forgive me for bringing life to this old topic, but I am also wanting some advice regards the face.

I am planning to replace it, and I am wondering how is the best way to get around removing the face without damaging and scratching the body of the loco?

Thanks

I'll not make a new post everytime I order a model as I think I will end up being irritating haha.

But now my collection has grown to:

Thomas
Edward
James
Percy
Annie
Clarabel
Henrietta
Sodor Fuel Tanker
Ice Cream Wagon

Hi all,

The tender on my Edward model has all his wheels freely running and none of them stick, but the centre wheels seem to be slightly higher than the outer ones and do not reach the rails, so obviously they do not turn when the loco is in motion.

I am wondering if this is just my model, or if most, if not all Edward models are like this, and if there is anyway to change this?

I don't think I will get the Edward from the rivals. He arrived today at which I am happy about but the only problem I found was that the front coupler moved around so much that it has removed a fair bit of red paint from the bottom of Edward's buffer beam

I also got a Bachmann Henrietta which was crushed so that roof was highly chipped and scratched, and one of the hand rails was bent.

Not having a good start to this Bachmann stuff...haha

Thats too bad.  maybe I will just send you a rival edward...haha!

I have got

Emily
Edward
Donald
Douglas,

and some red-box ones

No need, I decided to buy one anyway, hopefully he will arive in a few days

Hi all,

I purchased an oval of HO EZ Track off Ebay with a controller and AC adapter from the US.

I live in the UK so obviously I will need a UK AC Adapter. Am I able to purchase one and use them from a UK OO set or a Graham Farish N Gauge Set and use it on the EZ Track HO controller?

Many thanks

Oh of course, my mistake! The CGI replacement I was thinking of was the Oil Tanker, silly me Shame the Tar Tanker has gone I thought it was a nice looking model

Hi there

I wasn't aware that the well wagon / cattle wagon and the tar tanker had been discontinued. Do you mean the classic tar tanker or the newer CGI replacement Tar Tanker?

The red composite and brake coaches are also discontinued, along with the RF Container and the 6-ton wagon.

Hi all!

I have been looking on Ebay for Stock boxes (Storage boxes) and the measurements that come with the boxes seems a little too small for some of these HO Bachmann Thomas models to fit in (My Thomas seems ok as I have measured him up), but I think that Diesel maybe a little too big

Is there any appropriate sized stock boxes that people use, or know of to keep the HO Bachmann Thomas models in?

Many thanks
