I believe the code of conduct will permit me to vent a bit of frustration.
Last month I opened the packages for the first time of several N scale Bachmann Trolleys. When placed on the track, they hopped about and then simply froze up. Upon inspection I found split axle gears in all the trolleys. Keep in mind these were new out of box. Probably 20 years old, but never opened, never ran.
Ok, so I order 6 brand new trucks through Bachmann and attempt to install them tonight. Lo and behold, all six new trucks have split axle gears. Every truck, every axle. Now, we get to see if the Bach man wants to pull his stock and tell me that yes, I am correct, these trucks are garbage, or try to tell me that these gears are supposed to be split and are supposed to lock up the trolley and burn out the motor.
Order number 945 Mr. Bach Man, what say you?
