Bad news, I emailed the site and they told me they didn't have Salty in the warehouse. At least they'll send me the refund on the orders I placed. :(

I decide to go with the original plan I had that I'm gonna order the parts from the Bachmann parts site. Hopefully they have them in stock as at least I can built him.

So sometime after I made this thread, I was able to find just Salty from a toy store in Canada that still had him. I snatched the two last (I'm gonna kept one and sell the other on Ebay) and hopefully have them in their warehouse. If not, oh well.

Thanks for the heads up! I wasn't planning to get the Ironwork twins at the moment, but after what you said, I'll try to save up on getting the twins before they go out.

Welcome to the club! I've been trying to find 'Salty', without buying a complete set, for almost a year.

I wouldn't mind getting the set as I wanted to expand some of my tracks and rolling stock into my collection. Plus in case the controller I have doesn't work.

So I got back into model trains a few months ago and I was kinda curious about getting Salty since he's one of my favorite characters. Unfortunately, I heard that Bachmann stopped him a few years ago and I can't seem to find him or the set he came with anywhere. There was one site called InternetHobbies that still has the set, but I heard some bad stuff about them and I don't know if I should risk spending money on them or not. (Update, I contacted them and they said they don't have the item anymore. At least people who have an issue with the site know they contacted me)

I personally don't know why they stopped making him considering he's still in the show. Now I wish I got him before they discontinued him. I felt like I came back into the hobby at the wrong time. :(
