Title: HO American Freedom #4449 Question for the Bach-Man
Post by: Jock The New Engine on May 20, 2008, 03:55:02 PM
Mr. Bach-Man, it's me, do you think it's possible for you to make Non-DCC versions of the HO GS4 #4449's? ???  It's hard to afford them with DCC so could you try selling versions of them without DCC? ??? ???

I think they do make them without DCC. In reality, its not much cheaper, and if you plan on using DCC in the future, why not get the loco with DCC now?

As far as i've checked, i haven't seen a single one w/o DCC anywhere... :(  But why isn't it that much cheaper? ???
