I have a Mantua 0-6-0 with the slope back tender. I want to change that tender as I'm not fond of that style. I would really like a short Vanderbilt like the one that comes with the Bachmann USRA 0-6-0. Unfortunately, it isn't sold as a separate item. Does anyone have one of these they could part with?

WOW!! I just went swimming on ebay and found some Sharks!

I got an ABA set for a great price. I have only tested them so far but I'm very impressed with the way they run and look. My only complaint is the huge distance between the units. Has anyone done any mods on theirs to close up the gap? Has anyone done any detailing or added a Tsunami to one yet?

Thanks, Bachmann!!

Hey Mr. Bach-Man,

Any chance the new caboose will have a body for the Western Maryland with the correct end windows? How about in the Fast Freight paint scheme or undecorated? Pleeeeaaasseee!

Is the lettering on the Bachmann Transcontinental Oil Co. 3 dome tank accurate? Any info on the company?

Thanks,

Does anyone know if NERS (New England Rail Service) is out of business? I went to their website and it was gone. Walthers lists a lot of their products but says they are out of stock awaiting delivery.

Does anyone know a source for their parts?

Thanks,

Has anyone done a conversion of the Bachmann outside frame 2-8-0 into an engine SIMILAR to a SR&RL 2-6-0 or 2-6-2? If so, can you give me some hints?

Thanks,
Roger

I'm thinking of doing some On30 modeling using the Forney with outside frame. Will it run on code 55 or 70 rail?

Thanks,
Roger

Does anyone have a Western Maryland version of the Russian tender they would like to sell or trade?
