Hi Mr. Bachmann:

In reading the onsite description of the #86097 & 86098 Climaxes with Tsunami sound, it says I have a choice of 3 smoke stacks, and wither I want coal or fuel oil in the tender.

Does this mean, each Climax comes with 3 smoke stakes and a fuel oil or coal tender cover?

If not, how and when is this choice made?

I'm on the threshold of ordering one, and I'd like to know this before I place the order.

Thanks.

Mr Bachmann, please give me some ideas where in North America I can buy B'mann
Spectrum 1:20.3 #8xxxxx rolling stock?

I'd like to buy either the unmarked oxide box cars.

Cheers.

Mr. Bachmann can you suggest a suitable DCC decoder for the Porter?

how much amperage is enough for the Porter?

I said DVD in the other thread. Thanks for the schematic reference.

Thanks for the information. Now I know. Cheers.

I just acquired a new Spectrum Porter.

My other Spectrum locomotives have come with a DVD of directions, lubrications instructions etc.

Mister Bachmann, do the Porters also come with a DVD. I didn't have one in the box?

Riddle me this, what is a Murphy Roof?

I'm in ernest about this. How do they differ from non-Murphy roofs?

Can anyone provide info on the rather rare Sierra Valley boxcars produced by Bachmann.
Their product number?
Who might have some for sale?
Were they 1:20.3 or 1:22.5 or ...?

Thanks.

With the Climax coming with DCC/Sound, are the Porters also coming with DCC/Sound?

Can someone give me a history of the various Bachman G scale Climax locomotives. How to tell them apart, if possible, which need replacement parts right away etc.

I stand to be corrected, but I thought there were two "editions" of the Climax. I'd like to know the difference.

Thanks.
