Large / G Scale VS On30
July 10, 2011, 05:41:24 AM
I joined yesterday hoping to find out if the engine I have is a true "G' scale or a On30. I can't find anything specific, so I thought I would ask. Here is what I have:

Bachmann Spectrum 36 Ton-2 Truck Shay. ( Item No. 81197, according to BM, it don't exist  ???)

But it does. I have the original packaging, and shipping boxes. The box with the picture calls it a "G" Scale.
Searching on the internet I have found similar 2 Truck Shays in the On30 listings, as well as this site.
However they are listed with 14 Ton, not 36 Ton. A bit confusing  :'(

I bought it because I liked it and I had it on display. Now that I have time I want to add rolling stock. More track, maintain the scale, etc.  :) I want to do some Railroading!  :o

So which is it? Can an expert "train" minded person lend some advice?
