So did you get the HO Snowplow by itself? If so, where? I've considered looking for it on eBay, but I was just wondering if Bachmann sold it separately or if it will ever be sold separately.

no. i think they made it out of paper, because, i looked at the whole album, and saw a hornby duck with a snowplough and saw it was made out of paper

I don't think it's possible at this point...the way I see it, it's Bachmann's way of making money.  

Let's be honest here on a few things:

No one here has really bought the Thomas' fun with freight set right?  Or even the Emily passenger set?  That's because everyone has everything in that set, and everything in that set is currently on the Bachmann market.  

Now the Thomas Holiday set...it's pretty much exclusive altogether:  The rolling stock with Christmas decorations...the snowplough...even the little hat.  Can't get them separately.  The Salty set is even has some features considered exclusive now.  Besides the conductor with a mustache, it's the only way that people can now get the six ton wagon since it is currently discontinued.  It's Bachmann's way of making extra money, so I wouldn't get out of your way asking for separate HO snowploughs at this point.  If Bachmann finds ways to make money, like any other modeling company out there...I'm sure they'll find any way possible to do it.  

IE - Making both pairs of twins.  Bachmann was smart there, they knew people would buy all four engines, and less work would be put into it for them.  Everyone wins.

I forgot to tell you. It is NIB, straight from Bachmann. He buys it like he is a retailer and sells them on eBay aswell as his store. He is a good seller to work with, from what I've heard hes a great seller. It only starts at $.01 then it rises up, which show he is a good seller.
