 :)THANK YOU...I contacted the new owners of NWSL yesterday and they will have the replacement wheel sets.  I have purchased a couple more Doodlebugs (HO) on eBay.  So I will definitely get some of the NMSL replacement wheel sets as soon as possible.  The part number I was given was 2588-6 I hope that is correct since it has been a long time since Doodlebugs were manufactured by Bachmann.  THANK YOU.

HO / Doodlebug HO Great Northern
September 23, 2019, 01:45:26 PM
I just recently acquired a "like new" Bachman HO Doodlebug.  It was still in the factory plastic wrap and was acquired from a deceased collectors display case.  It seems to run great except it has a very loud clacking noise which sounds like there must be a bad spot on the drive shaft from the motor to the front truck.  ANY SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO CHECK THIS NOISE OUT?  I understand it was very common on these early Doodlebugs.  I could not find a video on YOU TUBE where this issue was addressed.  It sure would make it easier if such a video does exist.  ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE APPRECIATED.....Frank UPIT

HO / Bachman HO Doodlebugs. When were they produced (DCC)
September 10, 2019, 07:58:01 AM
Good morning. Can someone give me some information on when Bachman started selling the DOODLEBUG with DCC?  Was it a good seller?  Any idea if the Doodlebug will be manufactured again?  I sure would like to get one with FACTORY INSTALLED DCC (if they were reliable).

Is there an item number or product number that identifies the DCC version of the DOODLEBUG so I can look for one?

THANK YOU......Frank in Houston Texas
