What is the weight of the 1:20.3 Scale 0-4-0 side tank porter loco?  I want to compare the weight to the new BAC91198 2-4-2 Steam Loco which I am told weighs 4lbs 2ozs.

Questions about this new Locomotive.
1. What is its scale, i.e., 1:20.3 or 1:22.5?
2. What is its minimum turn radius?
3. Is this a Spectrum quality unit?
4. What is the height (in inches) of the engine cab door?
5. Is Item No. 91198 (Black with Red Windows and White Pinstripes) and Item No. 91199 (Green and Black with White Pinstripes) exactly the same? Pictures indicate that the pipe going down the outside of the water tank end at different locations???.

Is there any information available on Lubricating the G-Scale 0-4-0 Side Tank Porter Locomotive?

Hi:

I had the same problem with the brackets that hold the Hose...  Bachmann was good about sending me a few replacement brackets (2 sizes...).
The part # are G811X-0ZD03 and G811X-0ZE04.  The hose is the black tubing and is used to get water from streams, etc. for the Shay boiler...

Good Luck.

PS:  It you want to convert the Shay to a coal fired unit, see the responses to my question dated March 9, 2007.

The #82199 G-scale 38-Ton Two-Truck came configured as an oil-fired unit (although parts to convert the tender to coal-fired came with the unit).

How do I remove the Tender from the Chassis so as to install the coal parts???  Do I have to remove the lamp and sand unit that is attached at the back of the tender??? 

Any help would be appreciated.
