Yeah, those are for a gas station, but thanks for the suggestion.

I'm just hoping there is a coal railroad out there that doesn't need them. Too bad Bachmann got away from including the extra parts, I always thought that was one of those little things that made their products better.

I'm looking for some spare 4-4-0 oil bunkers that aren't being used. Does anyone have some they are willing to sell me? Unfortunately, there aren't any listed on the Bachmann Parts page.

Thanks,

They were just announced, not much info on them yet.

Bachmann,

I'm really glad to hear about the upcoming 1900s era coaches, I think they are long overdue. Do you have plans for matching combines, baggage, RPOs and observation cars? At a minimum, I'd love to see the combines, but I'd buy several of the other cars if you offer them.

Thanks,

It does look great. The T&G loco is exactly what I'm going for.

I thought they were the best Bachmann had offered, so I'm confused as to why they were discontinued in the first place.

Is there any chance you can bring back the 4-6-0 with the high boiler and larger drivers? I always thought that was a great looking locomotive. Offering it with DCC and sound would be a plus as well.

I've often wondered how if would look with a shortened oil Vanderbilt tender. Hope to see the return of both soon.

Thanks,
Travis

Thanks for reintroducing the 4-6-0 (52" drivers) with sound, do you have any plans to produce the 63" 4-6-0 locos with sound as well? Also, is there any way to purchase separate tenders? I may want a low flair side tender with the 63" driver loco.

Thanks,
Travis

My local hobby shop is closing after 40 years and during my last visit, the topic of scale came up. The owner told me the demand for On30 has been declining for the past few years. That made me think, when was the last time Bachmann came out with a new On30 locomotive? I'm not talking about a sound version, I'm referring to a completely new loco. Seems like it's been several years. Does anyone have information on any new equipment that might hit the market in the next year or two?

Thanks,
Travis

I agree with Mike. My vote would be for this 2-8-0 that operated on the Death Valley Railroad.

No doubt about it, the SPNG #8, #9 and #18. I love those whaleback tenders.

Will the new Alco 2-6-0 have a separate oil bunker like the On30 models? When will this model be available?

Then Bachmann could follow the DVRR 2-8-0 with the DVRR Brill Car.

I would think that would be a popular choice as well. The DVRR had some really cool little ore cars that would be perfect for On30 but I can find a photo of them on line.

I like to see Bachmann produce one of the Death Valley Railroad 2-8-0's.

It might be a little big as well but It would fit nicely with the OF 2-8-0 and the 4-6-0.

Here's a link to the tender photos in case you haven't seen it yet.
