while checking the dcc installation page for the thomas engines i found this http://www.tcsdcc.com/decoderpics/Bachman%209F%20steam%20loco/Bachman_9F_steam_loco.htm
this is the actual engine that murdoch is based on. looks like all that would be needed is to add the eyes and change the color
Hey willb, I see you are a new member here, why don't we keep ideas like this in the Wishlist section sense you already mentioned you wanting Bachmann to make Murdoch ;)
this wasn't for the wish list, but rather for those who might want to make their own murdoch. it looks like there are quite a few engines on the bachman uk page that are matches for the ttte locomotives.
Oh right, that's the same for Diesel, Duck, Arthur, etc. If they were made into the Thomas range they would turn out pretty good.
Well two of my friends have already made a Murdoch, one out of a Hornby model and 1 out of a Dapol kit, I'm doing mine as a mixture
