Title: Bachmann 1983 Catalog online...
Post by: tonycook1966 on September 15, 2007, 11:20:52 AM
Now have three classic Bachmann product catalogs available online...

The latest is the complete 1983 Bachmann Catalog.  This was the company's 150th Anniversary edition and included the PowerHouse and M*A*S*H sets in HO-scale; UP's DDA40X comes to N-scale; and the short-lived 1/32nd Road Racing.

This is great for people trying to identify old sets and/or rolling stock.

The only improvement I could suggest would be to have followed links change colour so that when you look through multiple pages with almost the same name, you will know which page you looked at last time.  The alternate would be "next page" and "previous page" at the bottom of each page, but that can be a lot of work.  The colour change should be easier.

YES!!!!
My beloved Power House!!!!
Thank you !
That was my first train set, lost it years later in a fire.  I have had a hard time finding much info on it.
I am in 3 rail O now and wanted to find out what loco and cars came with the set so I could recreate the consist in O gauge.  Now if this Williams deal goes though I could do it in full Bachman goodness  :)
Thanks again
