Does anyone not want a new engine from Bachmann?.

What prototype do yo want?.

Does anyone want a early small steam to go with the new 18' freight cars such as a smaller Forney like the Maine Two Footers?.

How about a Baldwin 2-6-0 with a wagon top boiler?.

Royce

Does Bachmann plan on bringing back the ventilated box car?.

Royce

Can Bachmann post a photo of the new caboose and is there anything else new?

Royce

When will the Bachmann HOn30 engines be ready for market?.


Royce

Bachmann if you ever consider making another engine please consider the Baldwin 0-4-2T Locomotive used by the Fairymead Sugar Co. LTD.these were small 24" gauge engines but will do fine in 30" for us.

See July/Aug Narrow gauge & Shortline Gazette drawing.

These engines ran in Queensland.

These engines are small and would go great with the 18ft freight cars or a industrial tram.

Is the new 4-4-0 listed in the catalog as having DCC and all new tooling going to have tender drive?.
Will this engine be updated to modern standards?.

Royce

Bachmann is there anyway to add another driver to the OF 4-4-0 On30 to make a small 2-6-0? this would make a great small Porter mogul to pull those short freight cars.
And while you are at it how about a four wheel caboose? these were very pouplar in the east.

Royce

Does anyone know of another On30 message board other than the Yahoo groups?,They have changed their format and it is horrible! , this room is mostly for the discussion of Bachmann trains and I thank them for the use of it.

Royce Wilson

Is there not any excitement about the announcement of the HO Porter 0-6-0T?

Royce

Can anyone please give me the measurements of the IF 4-4-0 cab.I need the width and height and length.

Thanks

Royce Wilson

Bachmann,If you put a four wheel bogie under that short caboose to go with the 18' cars it probably would be a good seller.

Royce

Bachmann was the original 14 ton Stearns Heisler built to burn coal and wood? I remember speaking with a old fella in Missisippi that was the fireman on a Stearns Heisler on the Shubuta Lumber Company(narrow gauge) and he spoke of burning slab wood and pine knots.
any information on this?   wouls love to make one a wood burner but don't want to be incorrect.

Royce

O.K. here is my wish list for 2012.

1.Baldwin 8-18-c 4-4-0

2. logging disconects

3. AH&D log loader and ditcher(powered)

4.2-6-2

and lets don't forget the EBT!

Royce

Has anyone in this thread converted the Bachmann 4-6-0 to Proto 48 or standard gauge?

Royce

Is there any place where we can find a picture or information on the new 2-6-0?

Royce

Is there a sufficent market for some real 19th Century motive power? Remember the Colorado Midland 2-8-0 and 4-6-0 made by Hallmark, you can't touch any of those for under $400 if you can find one and what about updating the old time 4-4-0 to a Specturm standards instead of a tender driven growler.come on folks!

Royce

In this month Model Railroader it mentions a conversion of a Bachmann 2-8-0 to a D&RGW C-21..Am I missing something where can I find On21/2? there is no mention of this in Yahoo groups or anywhere else, is this a new product?

Royce

Recently I saw a HO scale Bachmann Richmond 4-4-0 with fluted domes for sale on ebay and it was advertized as new..is this a new item. it really did look nice!

Royce

Why is it that Model Railroader refers to On30 as On21/2? and when they refer to HOn2/1/2 they refer it as HOn30?..are they trying to confuse people.

Bachmann, I remember a fews years back we were discussing hauling a Curtis Jenny on a flat car...I have found a 1/48 scale Jenny in a LHS, let me know if you want it and I will give you the name and address of the shop.

merry christmas
