General Discussion / BEWARE OF FAKE WEBSITES
November 27, 2023, 01:55:13 PM
Hello Everyone,
We have been alerted of fake websites that have Bachmann in their URLs. Please be extra careful when shopping online. If the online deal seems too good, it probably is. We have registered many domain names, but they all go to main website bachmanntrains.com. It is just not possible to register every combination, so please be careful and make sure the website is a valid company.
If you are unsure, you can check to see who has registered the domain name on https://www.whois.com/whois.

'Tis the season to be careful!

Williams by Bachmann / Jerry Williams
November 02, 2016, 11:36:36 AM
We are sad to inform everyone of the passing of Jerry Williams.
Jerry was a major contributor to the growth of the O Gauge industry. He recently was elected to the Model Railroad Hall of Fame by the Hobby Manufacturers Association. Staring from humble beginnings, Jerry established Williams Reproductions limited in 1971. Initially focusing on reproductions of hard to find tinplate trains, Jerry later introduced some iconic scale model steam locomotives to the O Gauge market for the first time. Although Williams Reproductions Limited was never the biggest company in O Gauge, Jerry's vision and competition forced other companies to raise their standards. Additionally, many of today's train manufacturers have benefited from the experience that they learned while working with Jerry. These include Mike Wolf and Andy Edleman of MTH, Ken Silvestri of Broadway Limited, and Larry Harrington of Bachmann Industries. He should be credited with the birth of Hi-Rail and recognized as a major reason for the size of the O Gauge market today.

DCC / Why won't my DCC ready locomotive respond to my DCC controller
November 06, 2009, 12:01:44 PM
DCC ready means that the model's motor is isolated from the frame of the locomotive so that a DCC decoder can be inserted between the power pickups and the motor leads without shorting out the decoder. Some models are equipped with a socket to accept a "plug in" decoder.
