When will parts be available for the ACS-64? The lettering is wearing off the carbody.

Thank you.

Will this model be available straight DC? I certainly hope so.

I recently purchased the Amtrak ACS-64. It is a beautiful model. My layout is DC; the model is supposed to be DC/DCC compatible. The engine runs awful on DC. I have no interest in sounds, etc. Is it possible to hardwire the motor directly to the trucks and avoid all those electronics I don't need?

When will the ACS-64's be avail?

Could you please tell me what the screw size is that secures the pantograph to your E33.

Thank you

Is there a release date for the HO Amtrak ACS-64?

The RF-16 should have 2 vertical panels of screening on the fireman's side of the engine. The Bachmann model does not have this. To simulate the screening, I used the Model Memories decals for the NH EP-5 motors. There are decals in the set for the intake screens that were located on the sides of the EP-5 carbody. They worked perfectly! I used them on the D&H model.

To the Bach-man:

When will your HO GG1 No. 4829 be avail? The photo of the model shows it with buff gold striping. According to books on the PRR and the GG1s, that striping was gold leaf.

When will the next run of HO GG1s be avail? I'm interested in the corrected scheme with the single broad stripe, large keystone and the 4829 with the one of a kind 5 stripes tapering into one.

Thanks

I see you are producing the GG1s in N Scale in the last PRR scheme with a correct keystone on the side of the engine.
On the HO model this keystone is incorrect; letters and outline of the keystone are buff gold, should be white. Will this be corrected on the HO model?

Thank you.
