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

Ahh, it appears to have the all-important working front coupler.

They have an amusing typo,

QuoteBachmann HO Standard Line Alco 2-6-0 Diesel Locomotive, with sound. Our choice of roadname.

Mr. Bach-man,
sDo you hava a release date for the new HO scale 2-6-0 mogul with sound? Also how abour release of the sound decoders for installation in existing Bachmann locomotives. Thanks,

Bucksco · November 16, 2011, 04:49:51 PM

The new Sound Value Diesels are in the warehouse and shipping to dealers. The steam locos should follow shortly. The DCC/Sound decoders featured in these locomotives are integrated into the electronics board and are not being sold as a seperate item.

Might already existing Standard Line engines at some point be offered in a sound-value on board and DCC ready versions as well?

Bucksco · November 17, 2011, 11:21:02 AM

I wouldn't rule that idea out...

Will the sound decoder be a separate PC board and plug into the Bachmann PC board like the 4-6-0 with Tsunami on board? I have that model and it looks like the present steamers all have that configuration.
I looked for the 2-6-0 diagram in the diagram page but might have missed it. Thanks.

No the DCC/Sound board is integrated into the electronics board (it's all one piece).

richg · November 18, 2011, 10:41:38 AM

Will the tender have a connector in case some want a different brand of sound decoder?
Some like to do that.

There is a Panama 2-6-0 in Arkansas. I don't think they run it any longer. High price of oil made it too costly to operate.
