I have been trying to buy the danged Jupiter and UP 4-4-0s (you know, the famous Golden Spike ceremony set) 51124 and 51101 for months now! They have been out for stock for months. What the heck is going on? Are you dropping these or are you going to make more and when will I be able to get them? No one seems to have them and no one knows when they will be back. Walthers doesn't even have an estimated date!

They will be back in stock in the Spring when Bachmann gets all their shipments in, so you'll have to wait about a month.

Why wouldn't Walthers know that? They have Feb 15 dates for a huge amount of Bachmann products, no dates for a lot of Bachmann items that are gone right now, and SOLD OUT for the UP 4-4-0 and TBA for the Jupiter 4-4-0. Has Bachmann told people that these are being rerun and released in March?

You need to have Mr. Bach Man replying to your question.

Anyone other than a company representative can only guess.

You could also try e-mailing the company directly, check the Contact Us tab

Patience, Grasshopper, the Container ship with the Bachmann products may even be one its way now.
You can also find it on ebay. I just looked.

When you get the locos, you can stick a Digitrax DZ125 decoder in the tender fairly easy. I have installed DCC decoders in my older Bachmann, Mantua and IHC old time 4-4-0s some years ago.
