Thanks Bill - you make railway (railroad) modelling a pleasure :)

Hmmm...tried to upload a picture, only 45 kb, and it says the uploader is full ?

Thanks Yardy  ;D  I would have thought that as they sell the product, they would give support for it as well.  Not a very goiod service as far as I can see.

Thanks Bill - and, I would think, a big thank you to you from all on the Forum for your help  :)

Age and dexterity (dexterity mostly) would preclude such a repair for me, but I would gladly send it to Bachmann and pay for them to do it.  The trouble is, I am in the UK (where I bought the locos)

So a question for "Bacchy" - do Bachmann UK do the necessary repairs ?

Wonderful news, thanks :)  Is there any chance of the Conso being re-done with metal gears - or maybe just the chassis ?  I have two that are completely redundant (they look great, but that's about it  ;D )

Hi, me again  ;D

This is probably a silly question, but is the body shell from 81099 (the plain black Annie with the nylon gears) the same as 91607 (the plain black Annie with the metal gears ?

Thanks :)

Does anyone have a picture of this upcoming beast ?

Disregard that - just seen it on Train World Online - it's the old Mogul re-done, shame because I was hoping for something new  :'( 

But what I do find a bit odd, is that there is no mention of metal gears ?  So the age-old problem will still exist - stripped gears, and for us that are not 100% adept at dismantling valve-gear and wheelsets (especially on the Conso !!!) another useless loco.

To save me breaking things with my huge fingers  ;D, please could someone tell me how to remove the cab from my "facelift"  Annie ?

(That's the one with metal gears - as all large scale locos should always have been, Bacchy ! )

New releases are announced at the NMRA convention every year in July. There are no plans to rerelease this loco at this time. BTW he only answers to "Bach Man" not Bacchy...

By the way - a tad too "shirty" Yardmaster.  You can put people off like that - suggest you have a chat to Bacchy  :)
