Looking for a list of the different markings of tank cars Bachmann produced. Am trying to make up a single train of all the different tank cars.

I did not include Spectrum, Thomas, or Short Line.  All cars after 2000 came with metal wheels stock.   Some of the cars are somewhat rare.  If buying on Ebay check that the metal wheels are still present, some sellers replace them with plastic. 

While I believe the above list is correct, I do make mistakes, so if you fnd one please let me know!!!!

Enjoy.

Bill,

Thanks for the superb effort. Looks like I have a few more to look for than I know about. Not sure I will chase the plain undecs, but who knows. It is a noble effort.

Bob,

The only thing that matters, is that you keep having fun :).  If you do a saved search on Ebay for Bachmann Tank cars with email alerts I suspect you will be successful!!  Just may take a little longer than you suspect. 


All the best,

Bill,

Thanks again for the listing. If I manage to pull this off, purging the re-issues, painted unlettered, and kits there are 20 unique cars. Combining the 14 unique numbers of the Gramps tanks and that makes a 34 car train.
