Bach-man, inquiring minds want to know .   Can we at least get a picture of the model?

Hi Wade,

I heard a rumor that all of the announced but not delivered items will be out in Nov, Dec, possibly late October.

I wonder if this is another item that is announced, but never made!!

Will the Bach Man or the Yardmaster respond?  Please!

[Bucksco]

Most likely fourth quarter delivery.

[Wade Colyer]

Thanks. Any pictures yet?

Wade

[Bucksco]

Not at this time.

The bottom photo above (0474) is the scheme of the Bachmann item. We have just received a production sample so a photo of the model should be available soon.

[Wade Colyer]

Thanks.

What is the ancestry of this car?  Is it in Sloan's book?

An interesting question.  I always thought it was a converted UTLX Tanker, but maybe not.  I tried to check the roster, there is only one tank car on the D&S according to their roster of rolling stock and it is 0474.  I thought there were more when I visited two years ago, but I guess i am wrong.  The C&TS has several UTLX tank cars for sure.

I was thinking of kitbashing a fire car; but if this is coming (especially an "undec" version), I'll wait for it!

the Grande had several water cars in the 047x series--so this falls into the realm of "Might have been's"  gj
