Title: Bachmann Diesel Locomotive
Post by: Sparky782 on September 20, 2011, 12:01:09 PM
I bought a used locomotive and prior owner did not know anything about it. It has Bachmann on the bottom along with DCC ONBOARD. It has the Roadname 6558 on it along with Norfolk Southern. Does anyone have one like it? If so tell me what you know about it. Motor type, DCCONBOARD, Item# if possible etc. I think this is an item # 60441 and I don't have any paperwork on it at all. I'm looking for some.

Thanks David

Open it up and take a look inside. Normally the Bachmann come with a low end Lenz decoder that is ok.
If the loco has the original decoder, it should run on DC as well as DCC.
A picture would help. Bachmann makes different types of diesels. I am not familiar with all the locos they sell that have your road name.
