I see there is a 14 pc graduated HO EZ track Pier Set numbered 44471, then i see another Pier Set numbered 44595 and this one is a 18pc set.
Both are the Graduated over/under sets, any clue what the difference is ? (and don't say 4 pcs)

Thanks,

HO / CSX 3 and 4 Bay HO Hoppers...any 6 packs made
December 24, 2010, 08:29:56 PM
I'm new, and am interested in modeling CSX coaling operations. I've searched and have only come up with Coal Porters, The kind used with rotary dumpers. I have Steel Mills near me and their yard is always loaded with mostly 3 &4 bay hoppers.  Some have high sides and are marked "Coke Express". They too are generally 3 or 4 bay hoppers.
I see Walthers and others offer multible 6 car sets, but they are all the coal porter version.
Has / does Bachmann offer 6 car sets in the 3 or 4 bay hopper(CSX)?
Black hopper with the yellow lettering is what I'm after.
Any Ideas?

Thanks,
David

HO / EZ Command Walk around question
July 27, 2010, 01:16:50 AM
I'm using EZ Command with 4 connector panels around the board, and of course a Walk around companion.
Initially everything was fine. Here is what is happening,  I have an engine running along(on address 6), I unplug the walk around controller(address 6 is lit up), plug it back into another connector panel and it goes right to address 3. Does it every time now. If I'm controlling an engine on address 6, un plug and re-plug , it should remain on address 6 shouldn't it?
What am I doing wrong? (if I am). It's less than a year old (I'm pretty sure). It worked fine when I first operated it. It's on a simple 5 x 9 board with several sidings, and there are about 6 diesels that are on(w/sound) a siding. 4 are Atlas Gold, a BLI, and an MTH.
Any help would be appreciated
Sincerely,
David

HO / Can't assign new addresses, any help?
June 02, 2010, 02:48:24 AM
Got my EZ Command out (was put away last fall). I had four engines assigned 1-4 addresses, had no issues doing it (last fall). Now everything operates only on address three. tried to assign new address's, no go. Have the engine running in forward, pressing the #3 and stop at the same time, release it and the light flashes but doesnt seem to flash "quickly" as the manual states. I continue and press #4, (engine does not move), light doesn't change the flash, I press stop and the engine continues in #3.  Any suggestions?
Thanks,
David

I see a whole bunch of Steam Locos with DCC and sound but it seems like Deisels are hard to find with DCC and Sound. Are they not produced, no demand ?
I'm not the "tinkering " type. I need to buy Deisels with factory installed DCC and Sound. Does Bachmann make such a thing? Future plans?

Thanks,
David
