Title: Spectrum 4-4-0 American???
Post by: Deanbierly on September 06, 2008, 06:34:20 PM
Bach Man,

I recently(within the last couple of  months) saw mention in one of the magazines of a future offering of a large scale Spectrum 4-4-0 American.

Since I tossed the magazine, and my dealer can't find it on any of his lists or web sites he thinks I may be losing it.

Am I???, Deano

Dear Deano,
We have several available now. They've been available for several year. The latest versions are in ornate 19th century liveries.
Have fun!

Thanks for the quick reply.

Are these the 4-4-0s that are found at the top of your "products" page ???

And if so, are they Spectrums?

Bear with me, I'm an old man and migrating from LGB

Dear Dan,
The windows open, but not the doors. You'll be very pleased with your new locoo.
Have fun!

The front cab doors open on both the Spectrum 4-4-0 American and the 2-6-0 Mogul.  At least they do on the early versions of both locomotives that I have.

In this picture you can see BUCK The Wonder Dog standing in the doorway of the CD&StL's American.
