Title: Acela Businessclass Car Numbers
Post by: mlrr on November 02, 2010, 12:49:07 PM
If a fellow, well-respected Bachmann Forum member and NEC modeler is reading this post, he's probably rolling his eyes and will surely chew me out here or in Springfield in a couple of months... :)

I'm one car away from having 2 complete Acela Express train sets (the prototypical 6 cars) WITHOUT duplicate car numbers! I just need one more Businessclass car. Does someone have a list of car numbers that Bachmann produced for the Businessclass cars?  They all start with 35XX

I have the following Businessclass cars:
3530
3532
3528
3517
3510

If anyone knows which road number to look out for, that would be very helpful. I'm pretty sure that that last number is likely found in an actual train set which would make the pursuit a little more difficult but given the fact that I'm still running 4-car sets for now due to space limitations, it does keep my "ambitions" in check

Thanks!

Hey, Kyle!
David may chew you out, but he'll also know the answer!
See you in Springfield!

I know!  The irony is that Dave doesn't particularly care about the "little numbers you can barely see on the cars" but he probably has them all!

Looking forward to seeing you in Springfield as well!

How about Bachmann Spectrum 160-89943, Amtrak Acela business class road #3530?

Thanks!  I just realized I mis-typed the first car number.  It was supposed to 3530, not 3520 but thanks!  I modified the initial post accordingly.
