HO / Discontinuance of steam engines?
January 22, 2023, 08:15:31 PM
I was looking at the online store on the Bachmann website and noticed a number of things not there anymore. I wonder if they've been discontinued.

1. Under the consolidation, no new items are shown.
2. Only three road names are shown for the 10-wheeler, which makes me think they are slowly selling them out. Fortunately, the Texas and Pacific one is still there.
3. The USRA pacific is no longer shown. I'm glad I got one while they were around.
4. The USRA mikado is still there, but the Southern Railway one and the New York, central one are no longer shown.
5.  And, the mogul is not there at all.

All of this makes me wonder if Bachmann is slowly getting out of the steam engine business, other than the 0-6-0 and variations, which seem to be in most of the steam engine train sets.
