We have uploaded a final image of Troublesome Truck #5: http://shop.bachmanntrains.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=258_259_262&products_id=6406. He should be arriving a little later this month.

Great news. I am looking forward to getting Troublesome Truck #5, as I missed out on getting the previous release of the Salt Wagon in Bachmann Thomas & Friends HO/OO Gauge range. I would still like to get some standard Salt Wagons without faces though.

Anymore news on the other three wagons and Rosie?

Diggin' it. I just hope the final product includes all the buffers.. :P

After how Toad came out, it wouldn't surprise me if the product was actually missing a buffer for no reason.

^ How do you mean that Toad was missing a buffer, Sparks?

It's more likely an error on the prototype picture kind of like how Spencer's buffers were missing on his original picture.  It will have all of its buffers together when it comes out.  I already have two of them coming for Christmas. :)

^ Oh yes, I see what Sparks means. I didn't notice a buffer missing. How strange! I hope you are right Chaz. I won't be buying this, if it does have a buffer missing!

Very nice. A good way to reintroduce the salt wagon, and if you want a regular wagon just pull the face off :P

Kudos to Bachmann for producing a classic face on this wagon, and bringing back the Salt Van, which has been in good demand since it was discontinued. I'd love to get a few, and I very much look forward to what else we get to see this year and next year :)

GWR Cattle Wagon, Sodor Salt Van and Live Lobsters Van model images unveiled and should be released around now. Still waiting for model image of Rosie and Rheneas. Probably shown in the 2017 Catalogue when it comes out in Late February/Early March after the New York Toy Show.

^ Thanks for that sean1994rail. We have the images for four wagons, so should get released soon. I am hoping that Rosie will get released sooner than Oliver does, as in length of time from announcement to the final product released. She is an American Class of locomotive, so I am hoping it means that Bachmann can release her sooner, as they should already have that tooling for that class in their system.
