Title: New Christmas Boxcar arrival date?
Post by: dmolavi on September 01, 2010, 03:12:04 PM
What's the ETA for the Christmas boxcar this year? http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/products.php?act=viewProd&productId=3461

This is strange, because the picture is not of an On30 model. The trucks and couplers seem to be an O tinplate or even an "S" sized car (as in American Flyer). And notice that the body has a door that opens towards the right, where the Spectrum On30 boxcar doors open towards the left.

Just an FYI, I spoke to a Bachmann rep at York and they said that the production samples had just arrived, so it would be a couple of weeks.  Will it be released in time to be running under my tree?
