I'll second Tony's request. I'm not a C&O modeler but I would like another couple!

Well now that looks like a very nice loco. Unfortunately I'm not an NYC modeller but that mechanism is just too tempting, Looks liike I'll be making a AT&SF Hudson  ;D

N / 4-8-4 Northern
October 31, 2020, 08:35:26 PM
Hi Mr Bachman,
I would really like to see the 4-8-4 kept in production. Right now parts are running out and this is the only correct design for the Santa Fe around. I would ask that Bachmann reworks the mechanism to be more like the Spectrum J 4-8-4. The Northern has broader appeal than the j Class and if the shell could be reworked with better detailing as a Spectrum  that would be really great.
Remembering also, the Northern is a ATSF 2900 class not a 3751 class, maybe you could do 2 types the 2900 class and a 3751 class?

Many Thanks

Hi Mr Bach-man,
Any chance of seeing Doodlebugs being re-released and updated with DCC in the Spectrum line?

cheers

Eric,
How long did you run it in for? and does adding weight help or worsen the problem?.I was thinking of getting a set.

Sigh......... The fix for the cracked gears is to use Bachmann's F9 wheelsets. This has been a remedy for the last 5 -6 years. You can order the F9 trucks from the online parts shop $6.00 for a truck.  ;)

You could try Bullfrog Snot and see how that goes. There's a few people on other forums trying it. Basically you apply a drop to a pair of drivers, according to others results have been good.

Just passing it on, not affiliated in any way.

cheers
