  Only caught a couple of episodes of Brisco County Jr, will have to visit U tube and go through them.

   E mails tell me the On30 manual should arrive today, Prof Fake's Rocket Sled on Thursday, had good intensions of cleaning up back yard
but Mother Nature is dumping Rain and blowing Wind = Cold so that is out!.

  Jury is still out on the sound, will give it a try and see how it go's?.

Quote from: Awesometrain77 on May 06, 2024, 03:11:30 PMI can't belive we are getting to see Rebecca's prototype tommorow . I feel we are gonna see her out around the end of the year maybe around November . I feel we will see painted figure packs, narrow gauge wagons , and N scale express coaches soon on Thomas Tuesdays


They said they haven't even started on the express coaches yet a few streams ago so I don't think we'll see them done until late this year at best.

What scale?  You can Google it or look on Bachmann's online store page.

Sodor Diesel Company Tanker is getting replaced with Hot Cocoa Tanker at some point in the future. I will get Hot Cocoa Tanker in HO/OO Scale soon.

Well, Ken, hopefully, if my experience this year is any indication, you won't have to wait too much longer. I wish you luck. I received one of the 2-6-2s for my birthday last year and I've been very happy with it. Its a very smooth, slow runner. Since I don't care for sound on my layout, it frustrates me that there doesn't seem to be a CV where I can turn the sound off. Right now, every time I turn the layout on, I get sound. It's OK for about 2 to 3 minutes but then it gets on my nerves and I use F8 to mute it. I would much rather not have it come on at all. I've considered disconnecting the speaker (as in snipping a wire) but its such a pretty little engine that I would hate to have to resort to that. As I said before, the engine is a great performer and looks really nice so I don't want to get rid of it. However, it will probably be the only locomotive with sound that I will own.

As far as the rocket sled, its been a long time since I've seen The Great Race but do seem to remember it. I agree, it would look great on a diorama. As I said before, check out the old TV series Adventures Of Brisco County, Jr. They had a rocket sled in a couple of episodes as I recall, and the scientist was played by John Astin.

I trust the source with that being said
The water tower is going next .
By 2026 I expect the only 2 buildings in the range to be Tidmouth sheds and cranky . It's so sad that Bachmann did this to us . I don't wanna spend $300 to get brendam wherehouse . Please bring them all back  Bachmann .

Sodor diesel company makes no sense at all in the shows logic where Sodor fuel has been around since season 3 not to mention the sdc tanker has the CGI SFT logos in black and white . I would miss this item if we at least got vicartown diesel works on it . Not gonna miss it at all .

I saw this one post about the pack characters and I like it tbh another off rail character we need is Trevor and the soft side lorry . And for off land bulstoade skiff and captain .
