Ok want to give any suggestions.  I could not find a way......

Is there a way to download the video so I have a permanent copy as compared to going to YouTube every time?

As an administrator, I want to make you aware of some things.  First, I tried to purchase this from a dealer in San Antonio, but no one carries it to be able to see it first, etc.  Thus I was forced to the internet.  When it came in, I was very disappointed that it came with an VCR tape (see above post).  But to get over it, I moved on to the real thing I bought.  First when I pulled it out of a completely sealed box from the factory, the front boiler piece will not stay in.  Nothing appears broken, but when you push it in, it won't stay.  Next, it appears that there should be two things that go in the top edge of each side of this boiler cover, but are missing.  There are holes in the plastic but nothing there.  As I get the unit out of the Styrofoam I see 2 pieces of plastic hanging down between the wheels.  I study it and it is apparent it is one of the connecting pieces under neath that runs between each sets of wheels on both he right and left sides. Next, I put it on the track and you hear the motor running, but it does not move.  The ash pan lights but no wheel movement.  I appears that the motor is just spinning or something inside.  I also have your 2 truck shay, climax and 4-4-0 and have not had any of these issues.  These are not inexpensive units and to have these issue immediately is unacceptable.  What are you going to do?

I just go my new 2-8-0 Deadwood and the video is on VHS.  I no longer have a VCR and haven't for years.  Is it available on DVD?  Are these really still being shipped with tapes instead of discs?

That is the one for gold ore and it comes with very realistic ore.

It was one of the main page pictures a week or so ago.  It looked nice in the pics but will have to wait to see in person.  At $470, I just had a heart attack.  Good thing Wade came in with the $70 crash cart to restart the ticker.

Bump........Any word???

When will this become available?  Price?

What kind of radius does these need?

Are the 2-8-0 engines physically bigger/longer than the 4-4-0?  What radius do they need?

Well I got ******* at myself because I am normally the real organized type and I know I had them at one time.  So I tore up the house looking and found them in a box with other train stuff I had forgot about.  So I did put them in a logical place, but with age comes senility.  I now have them on tape of course and borrowed a converter machine so I can convert.  I don't know if Bachmann will permit me to post but I will once I finish doing it if they say ok.  I also found the manuals and they do have a schematic that I may try to convert to pdf for future.

You have to get it under site map, not product reference..  Got it.  Thanks.

I have the exploded view of the 2 Truck Shay, but not the Climax or 4-4-0.  Here is the link for the Shay:  http://hyaklocoworks.weebly.com/bachmann-2t-shay.html

That was perfect.  Any idea how to get the same for the other 2?

Stumbled into same for hand truck and Christmas hand truck under the site map link but not for climax or 4-4-0.

M ickey, I forgot to mention that there is an exploded diagram of the handcars.  You can get to them by clicking on the product reference link on the left of this screen and scroll down to G Scale.

Would love to have that but there is no G Scale under the Product Reference and I did not find anything close in that area.

I purchased the 2 truck Shay, Climax and 4-4-0 Spectrum a few years back.  I cannot find the manuals for disassemble now that I want to add sound and Locolink and I no longer have a working VCR machine (everything is DVD).  Are the manuals available in PDF format and video available for download?
