Title: Climax info
Post by: az2rail on May 15, 2008, 11:56:18 PM
Being new to large scale, I don't have any info on the Bachmann Climax. None of the catalogs I have list them. Did Bachmann make an unlettered version? Any one know the product number, or info on these engines, or where I can get the info?

I can get a paint and lettered version, as they seen to pop up on e-bay, but I perferr an unlettered one.

Thanks.

The Bachmann catalog for 2000 lists two painted, unlettered Climax locomotives.
Item #81181 Painted Unlettered (with Tapered Stack)

Item #81185 Painted Unlettered (with Diamond Stack) 

The Diamond Stack is the Lima Diamond Stack.

Thanks JD. I will write those numbers down and be on the lookout for one. I did get a lettered version, but I still am looking for a unlettered version, unless I get around to relettering this one first.

I guess a lettered version would require less work, because the road number is already there. And by a fluke of luck, it has one of the number options that I was going to use. So all I realy need to change is the road name.
