N / Re: Track compatibility question from a newbie
January 19, 2009, 01:26:59 AM
I won't say a bad word reguarding Bachmann track. It is not bad at all.

But have you considered Atlas or Kato track. You have a wider bit of choice with Atlas, not so much with Kato.

Try putting the just the Bachmann number when searching Walthers. I believe it will work. However, depending on age  the item number may not be on Walthers.

 Are you interested in owning one of the premier N Scale web sites(nscale.net) please see below. The owner, Todd Values,  is selling it due to health and personal reasons.   

"If you, or someone you know, would be capable of handling the responsiblity this site requires, please contact me at: todd (dot) vaules (at) hotmail (dot) com".

If I had the money and computer knowledge I would buy it but I have neither.  :(

Hello Mr Bach-Mann.
I'm looking for a Consolidation in Southern Railroad Green Colors. There used to be one but it was discontinued. I've contacted all the dealers (I don't like to deal on E-Bay) I know and have not found one.

Will the company do another? Perhaps in Specturm line.
Thank You

Hello Jim,
I think you are right, maybe just a oval and leave out the trees.  :)

Hello Scottychaos,
Boy that sounds like a lot of work.  Hammers and nails that sounds like dangerous work,  ;D my thumbs throbing already. What's a power pack?  ::)

The Bach-Man,
Your grandson would love it. Mine did. And it only took me a week to put it together  ;D

I've been away a while and it's a pleasure to be back. Still one on the best fourms on the net and I like the new look.
So long
Switchman

I've been working on my layout for 2 years and still don't have any track laid. I don't know what it is. Maybe I bit off more than I can chew. It's a planned 2' x3' trackplan.   

It's N scale and HO would, for me be no different.

So I was thinking of moving to Thomas (that was a great TV show) but it appears to be to complicated for me.   

But I'm saved.  Here's a link to one scale I think I can handle.  It's scenery is just about my speed.

I was occasionally on the old forum and have just rejoined the new one. I must say I prefer the new one.

Congratulations to Bachman for a job well done.

I think I'll be spending more time here.

My name is Ron, I'm into N scale for two years, retired 3 years, Married 43 years.
See ya.
