Mr. Bachmann,
I have decided I will bite the bullet and obtain one of the new On30 4-4-0s for my little common carrier/logging line.
I am going to obtain the steel cab version and detail it with the upcoming redetailing kit from Backwoods Miniatures, which Pete says will include the much needed cabbage stack casting in resin to give it the Argent Lumber Company look that a good Southern logging line needs to have.
I really like the look of the tender trucks of the early version of the 4-4-0 as opposed to the archbar trucks of the later, steel cabbed version. Since my little line is struggling into the early 1960s, I have to have the steel cabbed version, but would really like to show the age of the locomotive via the older version of tender trucks.
Will any be available for sale?
Thanks.
Kevin
Dear Kevin,
I believe we are indeed likely to add these to the other available trucks.
Merry Christmas!

Hi Mr. B--about your comment "other available trucks" are you just referring to On30, or are any 1.20 trucks becoming available separately?
Pester, pester.
Larry
Dear Larry,
At this time I'm talking about On30, but I'm lobbying hard for the 1:20.3 trucks as well.
Merry Christmas!
