EZ Track Layout Book

AGRTERP4LIFE · February 04, 2008, 11:49:13 AM

Not to beat a dead horse... I was just wondering when the layout book will be available for sale? I have heard several dates and just wanted to get a better idea so I knew when to get it.

Thanks!

I have asked until i am blue in the face... you just have to wait, because the date keeps getting pushed back.

By now, I'm convinced that Bachmann will release the EZ-Track book when CSX and Norfolk Southern announce merger plans

This gave me a laugh... I spotted a Norfolk Southern locomotive a few weeks ago in Western Maryland pulling a freight load. Maybe that is a good sign for the layout book.

And yes, the catalog would be nice too.

I e-mailed Bachmann and they told me the layout book would be out late June or early July of 2008 . Ireceived the reply on March 10.2008 .

That is odd in that I already have the 2008 catalog. They must have oversold and had to make another run.

The layout book only has 26 suggestions. I have seen web sites with hundreds of designs. When I first started out, I too wanted to see thousands of layouts, until I realized that was backward thinking. That's when I quit searching and started designing my own layout. Just MHO.

I received my catalogue in the mail the day before yesterday. Itwas so nice and shiny and the pictures so real that I just about sent them my Visa card and told them to fill it up. I sure it be a better investment than gasoline.

I don't want to be rude, but that is the last thing in the world I would like to see.

However, the idea did give me a laugh.

My favorite railroad was absorbed by the N&W, which I also liked a little. I never have liked the NS, even after I learned that it was the result of the N&W and SOU merge. If it ever merges with the CSX, I will pray that it is actually a CSX takeover.

Manual One was an old eztrack book from a while back.
The stock number and book cover are correct.
