Heard anything from when 'Parts Department' will be back up and running? I need an air tank for a 4-6-0 project.

Large / Old Decals?
May 12, 2020, 09:50:13 AM
 Friends,
I have a set of old decals. I have used one decal from the sheet and it came apart. Any ideas on how to save them to make then usable? I am using them to reletter the Annie from RGS #25 to RGS #20, so basically just using the numbers.

Friends,
Looking specifically about hand rails and detail parts attached to running board on fireman's side and pipes running into the cab. Any ideas? Do they bend and come out? Do the handrails slide in the stanchions? Does the running board slide with pipes attached? Apply any lubrication? I am sure some of you have taken the cab off before. Thoughts? Ideas? Experiences?

Large / How to remove cab from an Annie?
May 01, 2020, 10:43:08 AM
Friends,
I am working on making a Rio Grande Southern #20 4-6-0 locomotive from a Rio Grande Southern #25 Annie. I want to replace the original steel type cab with a wood style cab. Any instructions or hints on how to remove/replace the locomotive cab? Thank you in advance.

Tennie. Big Ten, or T. Wheel maybe? Playing on the Big Hauler, how about Super Hauler?

Even seems to be available now or soon on the Bachmann online store:

The 4-6-0 is now available in a DCC- and Sound-Ready version that features an advanced nonproprietary plug-and-play circuit board to accommodate the control system of your choice, including conventional DC power, NMRA/NEM DCC, and/or RC operation.  Equipped with factory-installed speakers, it is ready for the addition of plug-and-play prototypical sound. (Plug-and-Play Sound Module available separately for sound-on-board performance.) It also features metal gears, a new tender, operating headlight, smoke, metal siderods, separate piping, and all metal handrails.

Any updates?

Hey Bach Man,
On one of the large hobby shops in NYC web site, they have the following info:
Bachmann #91801 D&RGW 4-6-0 Steam Locomotive. This is a back-order item and is not currently in stock.
It will be shipped when we receive it from the manufacturer and you will be charged at that time.
Date due: 09/30/2020
Do you have any more info? This could be exciting news!

Chastity,
The 2020 catalogue has it listed with a suggested price. That is more than the 2019 offered. I am hopeful. I did start a new thread regarding the 2020 version of the 4-6-0. Hopefully, we will get more info and photos, and release date soon!

Large / 2020 Big Hauler Upgrades and New Paint
February 20, 2020, 10:55:20 AM
Hey Mr. Bach Man,
  I see the new for 2019 announce Big Hauler upgrades are listed in the 2020 catalogue with suggested retail prices. Seems that would indicate there is some possibilities for 2020! Can you shed any new info, photos, etc? I know I am puss
hing my luck, but with RGS 20 and D&RG 168 steaming this year, those would be EXCELLENT paint additions to the line.

Bachmann,
Since the large scale Thomas set is sold out, and many stores have no or limited inventory of large scale Thomas (particularly Annie and Clarabel), any chance of those being run again?

Dear Bachmann,
Any updates on the 'NEW' 4-6-0? It is now 2020, so maybe something is in the works. Maybe the 2020 new releases will feature the loco again!

Dear Bachmann,
Any updates on the 'NEW' 4-6-0? It is near the end of 2019, so maybe something is in the works for early 2020?
