is it possible to remove it easily as I would like to replace with a real wood deck.

these are nice cars, hopefully Bachmann will add to the fleet of these,
A passenger car would be nice

does the E-Z Command® Digital Command Control System allow me to do cv programming ie light dimming etc or do I need a dynamis?

also with the new 0-4-2 Porters I was going to swap the shell from an older one with the new one to get an all black 0-4-2 are the screw holes the same ?

Can I assume the 0-4-0 is as good as the 0-4-2, looks like the bell etc is the same as the 0-4-2 not the shiny plastic and did the 0-4-0 retain the cab light ?


great products Bachmann, just need a short passenger and baggage car to go with them and life should be perfect.

Will it use the TSU 750 decoder for small steam, soundtraxx seem to recommend it and do you know the 3 whistles it will have available.

When will we see some painted samples or drawings of the new Porters in their Maroon livery..
... excited to see (and hear) these little fellas...

I will be at the convention this weekend, I have been in On30 for 12 years so i feel i have a decent knowledge of it.
Bachmann created a huge following and many cottage industries with the Porters and little critter
I really hope we get a Porter and Davenport DCC and sound upgrade and some simple short passenger cars ... in fact a whole line of new shorty stuff would be nice... stuff that can be altered and bashed and offers fun modifications by other small manufacturers like Backwoods miniatures and Boulder valley.

I was looking at the Gretna sized loco and was wondering where the engineer would
sit or stand on the prototype, It does not seem to have any room...

nice looking engine.... soon as I find out I am gonna buy one
