Title: SD70ACE and ES44AC sound value
Post by: quark51 on July 18, 2015, 09:56:15 PM
Why does Bachmann not make the HO scale SD70ACE and ES44AC without sound? I was looking at the online catalog and every other HO scale locomotive in the catalog comes with and without sound. I rather have working ditch lights instead of the sound on these locomotives.

Dear Quark,
Every project requires choices, and no choice pleases everyone.
Sorry this one doesn't please you...
Have fun (anyway!),
the Bach-man

If you don't want sound, you can take it out. If you want working ditch lights, it is not that hard to install them yourself. The nice thing about this hobby is that you can alway modify something to suit your needs.

This is model railroading. Learn to adapt and modify to what you would like.
