Yes, they are late on the ones for other gauges but they won't be making ON30 ones untill July at the NMRA National Convention.

Okay, thank you. I just ordered a Rock Island 2-8-0 and Southern Pacific Med Vanderbuilt tender off the Favorite Spot last night. I'll let you know how it works when it comes.

Hi, would it be possible to take a DCC equiped 2-8-0 and swap a DCC ready(vanderbilt Med) tender with the factory one? Thanks,
Ryan

Sorry that I can't offer any advise but I would love to see the finished model when you get there.

On the 14th. of this month, at the Toy Fair in New York.

I would love to see the 2-10-0 DCC equiped.

You can find LOTS of great Frisco information on this website. It is 100% Frisco and everyone is very helpful. www.frisco.org

BTW, is the C16 the one that San Juan Car Shops was going to do?

They were going to but they canceled it. Accucraft has announced one though.

I don't own the heavy mountain but I have the light mountain which is basicly the same locomotive. It will go around 18" radius track if it is PERFECT. It is really more happy on 22" though.

Looks great. Not to many things that I'll need but I will have to get one or two of the Spectrum 0-6-0s.

There are three locomotives that I would really like to see. If Bachmann were to make these I would be content for a long time.
A model of CB&Q #534

A C&S 2-8-0 in peticular #70

And a updated 2-6-0 with THE CORRECT TENDER!!! I don't know why Bachmann made these with the rong tender but it really bugs me.

It won't be. I emailed them about it and it is due this summer. I would still like to see a Bachmann model of it since the MMI one will need a 24" min radius. However there are other models that I would like to see A LOT more.

Proto 2000s are very quite smooth running locomotives.
Atlas are very smooth and pretty quite although some are a little louder than others.
Overal BLI is defently the best (in my opion).

Bachmann makes lots of Southern models for what size of a railroad it was. They have the...
2-8-0(in both green and black)
the light 4-8-2 if you can still find it
4-4-0(again in both green and black)
2-10-2(in 3 road numbers)



BLI has their great light 2-8-2 in several road numbers painted for Southern. You can get these for a great price from Factory Direct Trains.

Proto 2000 from Walthers has a 0-8-0 that is painted for Southern.


There are also lots of diesels painted for Southern and maby a couple other steamers that I forgot. This is a lot of locomotives compared to what a lot of other railroads had so I don't think that Bachmann or any of the other companies should be picked on for this.

I found some more ideas

I would love to see this one made, even if it dosen't fit my prototype.
