General Discussion / New Bachmann locos
May 07, 2010, 01:36:58 PM
The new doodlebug and 0-6-0 shifter have been advertised on sale on the website for some time now but the Shopatron site does not appear to have them.  I thought they would be available by now.  How long is it going to be?

General Discussion / Re: Decoder in Loco

OK. Thanks.  I took the tender apart and saw what I thought was a decoder installed but obviously not.  Two sets of wires run to the locomotive connected by a couple of plugs. I'll read up on the installation and see if I can do it myself.
Thanks again

General Discussion / Decoder in Loco
March 25, 2010, 08:49:51 PM
I am in the process of converting my HO railroad to a DCC system and have bought an MRC Prodigy Advance system.  I have been trying to program a loco that I bought from Bachmann about 3 years ago (I think).  It is a K4 4-6-2 Pacific locomotive.  The Bachman item number is 84013 but I don't see it on your site.  I no longer have any of the information that came with it.  I need to understand the voltage requirements to program into the system (starting, top).  Can you tell me what decoder is installed in this loco and how I might find out the voltage needs?  Is the loco now discontinued?  Also is the decoder address likely to be the loco number (3750)?  I think it is.

Any help much appreciated.

I am very interested in buying the new 0-6-0 saddle tank switcher.  When will it become available to buy online?
