Was anyone surprised by Daisy having an eye mechanism? As far as I remember, not too many people were expecting its integration with her windows in mind. Regardless, it's a welcome addition that may make her model all the more nifty.

I was certainly surprised to see that! I guess the main question with Daisy is what Bachmann will do with Daisy's windows:

1. "See-through" windows like the express coaches even if it means that we may see the motor or moving eye mechanism?
2. Closed windows with black plastic like Thomas and Percy's HO cabs?
3. Closed windows with silver plastic like Mavis and Diesel's HO cabs?

What do you guys think?
I think that Bachmann will do #3

The NMRA is this week, so it's possible we will have an update on the coaches then, if not then maybe at some point late in the summer since that was around when we first saw a picture of Rusty.

If they were to get cancelled like the large scale Diesel did, they would be absent from the catalog and Bachmann's web store.  

I'm willing to bet that the coaches are going to be resembling the Talyllyn coach 4 tooling with the red coach basically being just that and the blue one painted in model era colors.


I looked on the Bachmann trains web site and there was no picture of the coaches[not even the model series or cgi]but a picture of the red Rosie,we can only wait and see.

I though of a idea for the diesels with moving eyes and it's were you put the motor on the body and have a rod come from the motor and at the other end of the rod have some gears that go to the wheel sets and the other end of the motor goes to the gears of the moving eyes [fond this method on an old TYCO diesel just so you know].
