A Detailed 2-6-2

[Dakota7820]

Thanks for the great ideas and conversation guys! Well I sent my request by email to the sales folks at Bachmann. I even attached a couple photos of some Prairies working hard through deep timber and remote countryside, thinking I might get lucky and inspire the right person    They thanked me for the thoughts and photos, then politely told me they were currently focusing on improving their existing products like the new 4-4-0, and that they had no plans in the near future for a new 2-6-2 lol. Oh well, back to the drawing board!

Maybe I'll go down the list of manufactures with my request and see if I can't persuade (a.k.a. pester) someone into producing us one  Hey someone, somewhere had to do it!
