Title: F7
Post by: BHTraindriver on March 09, 2011, 03:10:37 PM
I just purchased a new Bachmann HO ATSF Warbonnet F7A (item no: 63003)  It looks great and runs really well, but it is light.  Does Bachmann make a B unit to go with this A Unit?

An alternative is to run two A-units back-to-back, just like the full size railroads did and still do.

Actually,  Santa Fe Warbonnets were passenger locomotives and were ALWAYS run with a B unit because the A unit did not have a steam generator to supply passenger cars. ;D

Dear BH,
Out FT B unit, Item No 11802, should look fine,
