Title: Want more pictures of new Bachmann 2-10-4 Steamer
Post by: Pacific Northern on September 03, 2008, 09:13:25 PM
The product pictures have been reduced to such a degree as they are of little use.
Bring back the larger pictures.

It is next to impossible to veiw online the level of detail that the old larger pictures had.

Not really, it is so difficult to see the up close detail on this engine.

I guess I will have to go visit one of the larger hobby/train shops in Vancouver to be able to judge the quality of this engine.

I opened the picture in my image program, then enlarged it 4X.  I think the detail is exquisite right down to the courses, piping and rivets. Of course your opinion may differ.

Thanks for the picture.

Followed your advice and the detail is quite good. Not sure if it is on the same level as the Berkshire.
