I have a older Bachmann 4-6-0, in the North Star logo.  It has a burned-out smoke generator coil.  Please let me know pricing for two, with shipping.  Also, I would need a procedure to replace the coil, as I do not have a manual.

Thanks,

Bach Man,

I picked up a used Bachman 1995 vintage 4-6-0 track power gauge 1 loco--maybe a big hauler.  It runs and has chuff.  However, the smoke unit must be burned out, as it won't smoke, even after putting smoke fluid in the reservoir. The smoke switch in the front of the smokebox is turned on.  I assume the smoke unit is burned out.  Is this part available, and, is there a procedure to replace it?

Thanks for your help.

Bach Man,

I just picked up a used Bachman 4-6-0 loco and tender in the North Star Express Line. It is a maroon color with black and silver trim.  It runs and has Sound (chuff).      Bachman-China is stamped on the bottom of the loco, with no other identifiers.  There is a compartment in the back of the tender for a 9 volt battery, to power the sound.  I would like to know approximately when this loco was built, and, if a manual is available for it. Also, does this loco have smoke, and what is the scale?

Thanks for your help.
