Hello there. Do you guys have plans on releasing more Heavyweight coach cars?
Dear Freak,
It's possible down the road, but there's been no announcement as yet.
I'll pass along the request.
Thanks!

Mr B.
Years ago when Bachmann released the heavy weight passenger cars, many people talked about the problems created by the pivoting coupler boxes. For those of you who do not know what I speak about, the coupler boxes were connected to the trucks by a metal leaver. When the trucks pivoted, the boxes pivoted. The problem was that the boxes had a tendency to droop causing coupler height problems.
Do you think that Bachmann would consider another type of design for pivoting couplers if a re-release were to be considered? If so, I strongly suggest looking at the way Walthers' passenger cars are equipped.
