Title: Bachmann Big Hauler
Post by: jreplogle on December 29, 2008, 05:14:40 AM
Hi!,

  I recently won a brand new Bachmann (R/C) Big hauler on ebay and I love it. Does anybody have some extra track to sell (Plastic Bachmann track)? Also, I would want to obtain a Holiday Express if I can. It would be nice to have both sets. Could you guys possibly point me in the direction of how I could get that set? Thanks again!!!!!!

Dear jreplogle,

Plastic track shows up on e-bay every once in a while. 

If you decide to change to Bachmann G metal track, I have new ovals (12 curves, 8 straights) if you are interested.

Contact me off forum via email:  joebarbATwwtDOTnet

Technically, you have new old stock (NOS), as the R/C Big Haulers have not been made since the early 1990's. 

I'm glad that you are enjoying your set. 

Don't lose the controller. Again, I say,  Don't lose the controller. There are tons of those R/C engines out there with their controllers AWOL. 

I'm sure you could have an entire fleet of orphans for very little money if you matched their frequency to your controller and were happy running only one at a time.

An engine with a number 7 on it is 27 MHz.  An engine with a number 9 on it is 49 MHz.

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,

Joe Satnik
