What say Mr Bachmann,  any reply?

Here we go again.  Any possibility in the foreseeable future of  O scale GP30's or 40's, both decorated and undecorated for us who like to do our own roads?  You've gone from steam, to first generation diesels, to modern, but left out the second generation diesels.    Thanks.

Can anyone advise if the BL2's that were en-route from the National Railway Musium in Wisconson ever made it to their final destination and are they ever going to be servicable again?

GP30's to go along with the 35's would be nice also.

There are 4 pics to look at.  I don't know why they are listed straight across instead of up/down.
Don't know how to correct the matter either.  Thanks for looking and comments.  Steve

These are some WBB engines that I painted for myself.  Hope they come out ok.  Some ideas for future WBB paint schemes.

I have to agree with you Dave.  It can't be that much of a problem to redesign the nose to a more rounded prototypical cab design.  What say Bach-man and 3-rail???  Give your followers a little insight that we can look forward too.

Try the OGR forum from O Gauge Model Railroad Magazine.  It's free to advertize there.

Having the GP30 in their original colors is a start.  Look guys, these are toy trains ment to be played with and enjoyed.  If a proto type never had a particular model, so what.  I once took a williams BL2, stripped it, and repainted it in B&O passenger colors.  Did B&O ever have a BL2?  NO.  But it sure was fun to paint, and it looked sharp, if I do say so myself.  That is part of the fun in model railroading.  I like as much detail as the other guy, but I'm no RIVIT COUNTER.  Enjoy it, play with it, and don't worry about what anyboby else might say.  Toys are toys, and I love mine.

Hello 3-rail.  Anything to look forwards to for O scale GP30's?

Great idea Lee.  Hope 3 rail monitors this

I'm talking about reasonable pricing that WBB has now.  I know that Lionel and MTH have GP30's in the neighborhood of $400.00.  To me, thats expensive.  WBB have similar engines that Lionel and MTH have also but at about half the price.  That's what I mean about affordable.  I would match my WBB engines against any of theirs any day for reliability and cost.

Hey WBB.  How about some affordable GP30's in O scale.  Sell them in pairs, one powered/one unpowered, starting with the roads original colors as delivered from EMD.  So far you produced almost everything around them.

Thanks to all .  I'll give them a try this week.  Regards,  Steve

Question, when I attempt to double head a pair of Williams BL2's back to back, they each want to start in opposite directions.  Is there a easy fix?  Thanks,  Steve
