I hope that the Dash 8s will come back. I wanted another ATSF and a conrail.

I also hope tht D8's come back out... maybe in an NS scheme.. but if you want one you can probably still find them on online retailers like www.hobbylinc.com, www.trainsetsonly.com, ebay and your LHS.

Well, my local hobby shop only carries 1 dash 8 (union pacific that no one wants by walthers.) and i really dont have much money. i was thinking about model train stuff, 2 for the price of 1! well, who knows.

And they should make a NS scheme for that model, heck, they made a CSX one!

well, for me it is (lol) where else will you get a model for $40 that costs $80 at the cheapest places? Sadly, they sold out last week of the painted dash8s :(

   That was out of stock as well as discontinued, right?  I think Bachmann and a lot of others have had supply problems from China, so I expect a good many items on that list are going to be back in stock while only a minority will actually be discontinued.

No you are incorrect in your interpretation they all are discontinued (and because they are discontinued they are no longer in stock). Supply problems has absolutely nothing to do with any of the items on this list, all the items on this list are discontinued or no longer being produced for the time being.

Here is some information regarding new Bachmann products from what for me is my LHS, Peach Creek Shops in Laurel MD.

The Plymouth MDT (WDT) is still in production according to an acquaintance that owns a small hobby shop. He told me the road names change periodically; but the locomotive is a fairly good seller. This is a good thing as many of us that model small (read: mini a-la Carl Arendt) industrial layouts rely on these great little critters.

Is also useful for On30 and Gn15 critters and dinkys.
It runs smooth, slow, and has a better pull than the real thing did!

Have one which is staying HO and getting painted in Rock Island's blue and white "The Rock" scheme.
Totally no prototype but that's what I want  ;D
