Title: Spectrum Heavyweights - Close out sale
Post by: Pacific Northern on October 04, 2008, 05:59:34 PM
Just received my latest Model Railroader and I see one of the big on- line model railroad vendors is clearing out the 4 car sets of the Spectrum Heavy Weights at $39.99 per set. Items are marked as close out sale.

Will Bachmann be releasing any replacement heavy weight coaches in the near future.  What about the light weight sets that followed the old heavyweights?

Just out of curiosity what is the quality of these passenger coaches.  These are the Pre-Spectrum, I have seen this Bachmann set a few times for sale on e-bay.  The sets are labeled Classic Collectors Series.

I have 2 sets of them .They are very good for the price and are very detailed, just keep the trucks lubricated. I PAID 40.00 A SET ITS A GOOD PRICE
