On30 / Backdating the 2-6-0
February 10, 2011, 02:24:02 PM
Hi everyone
Does anyone have any tips for backdating the 2-6-0 to look like a pre-1900s locomotive.
Cheers :)

Our layout is unusual: narrow gauge mainline with a logging branch (the "mainline" is just a continuous loop around the room, whilst the logging branch is the main part), these were nonexistent after the 1930s(?) due to updated railway laws.
I was just wondering if anyone had pictures of logging railways and equipment pre-1930s?
Also, does anyone have any suggestions on suitable stock? We have 2 shays, 2 climax's (1 has the backwoods climax tender) a 2-8-0 and a 2-6-0, as well as coaches, HS gondolas, skeletons, boxcars, flats etc (all bachmann) these do look suitable for 1920s equipment
Cheers :)
You've probably guessed, i am a Brit    :D

Hello Mr Bachman, i was hoping you would be able to help me. I was thinking about buying an inside frame 4-4-0, but i was wondering what its hauling capabilities would be up a 1 in 20 slope (sorry, I'm British)
Cheers :)

On30 / Shay sound

Hey Mr Bachman, I have a shay without sound and i was wondering if it was possible to buy the same chip that is used on the sound shay, as I would like them to match (as per the real thing).
Cheers :)

On30 / Your dream loco for Bachmann to produce
August 31, 2010, 04:01:33 AM
Hey everyone, I made this topic so you can express your favourite locomotive for Bachmann to produce  :D
Mine would have to be:
1. Some form of Heisler (about the size of the Climax preferably)
2. A Garratt (Victoria Railways G42 or a SAR NGG13/16 would be nice)
3. A WWI War department Baldwin (10-12-D class)
Who knows, maybe Bachmann might produce your favourite locomotive ;)
Cheers :)

On30 / 2-6-0
August 29, 2010, 05:18:53 AM
Hey  Mr. Bach Man, does it seem likely that the 2-6-0 will be re-released to the same standard as the other models: eg. DCC/DCC sound and a "goodie bag" full of different add-on bits.
Cheers  :)
