I happen to have a pair of Kitbshed SD45's which resulted in me using FOUR EMD GP40's Introduced: 1968 (first GP40), 1969 by BACHMANN. Would anyone happen to know what CHASSIS would fit? I also happen to have a BACHMANN EMD SD40-2 SPECTRUM VERSION no CHASSIS. I am in need of CHASSIS and Respective BACHMANN JEWEL CASES for these.

Since BACHMANN upgraded, Improved and introduced the Spectrum 2-8-0 which I obtained 4, My question is this.  Will we see a Spectrum version of the MIKADO 2-8-2 at some point?  I still have the Instruction Sheet for the OLD MIKADO 2-8-2 and CONSOLIDATION 2-8-0 even though my Locomotives of that version are long gone aka sold.

Being that I once resided CANANDAIGUA,NY , I have the book on the NC -The NORTHERN CENTRAL Railway A correction should be made on the BACHMANN'S current run of the HO-SCALE NORTHERN CENTRAL 4-4-0 the N.C. RR should read as N.C.RY. .  Second is there any chance of producing the NC RRR 4-4-0 IN N-SCALE?

 All,

  I have a BACHMANN SPECTRUM 4-8-2 when I run it at a moderate speeds the pilot truck tends to derail, anyone happen to have any ideas to curb this issue?

TJ

The question is will we be able to see this >http://www.bachmanntrains.com/bm/news/featuredproduct/987 coming at some point in N-SCALE in the future ?

TJ

I saw this > http://www.modelrailroadforums.com/forum/showthread.php?39172-Cleaning-locomotive-wheels...  it reminded me of this topic >http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/board/index.php/topic,18054.0.html < I just had to laugh.

My mountains 4-8-2 lead truck keeps derailing is there a simple solution for this without making the loco too front heavy ? Anyone have any ideas..

TJ

I would like to know if there is a Reference Manual / instruction Sheet for the SPECTRUM N-SCALE 4-8-2 Light Mountain, the Standard Line "N" GE U36-B and "N" GP40? Two with the exception of the loco shell of the 4-8-2 Heavy Mountain are those Instruction Sheets / reference manuals identical?  After purchasing my SPECTRUN N SCALE  4-8-2 LIGHT MOUNTAIN I noticed it had no Reference Manual / instruction Sheet upon opening. Would anyone know where I could find these or is there a link?

             Thank you,
                         TJ

I would have to say either a Boxcab diesel, the ALCO C415 or FM's H12-44 , I would say all three.

I am curious to know how this run of BACHMANN N SCALE GE DASH 8-40C is different from the 1996 and 2003 run especially when the loco shell is overall the same? Is it that the chassis was only  improved?

T.J

out of curiosity was the BACHMANN GEU36B offered in the BACHMANN PLUS LINE?

TJ

I have the Consol. the 2-8-0 I would like to back date it by the addition of a clear vision tender. the railroad that I would like to represent is The BUFFALO and SUSQUEHANNA RR. Are there any Clearvision tenders available? The old ATLAS / RIVAROSSI 0-8-0 tender is correct however, I would prefer to keep my project all Bachmann.
