Connie Availabilty

[CCSG]

Is the Connie still being produced? It believe it is absent from the product list. Will it return?

Thanks,
Patrick

I think the 1:20.3 Consolidation is not being manufactured right now, but it is still widely available new from stock (for example from Trainworld).

A great loco in terms of detail and operation. Mine is two years old and keeps clocking scale miles; however it is quite heavy and must be operated gently, and with clean and well lubricated gears, or gear problems will probably occur - not to be operated by speed demon kids. Also, the counterweight nuts must be regularly tightened, or the side rods will jam and stress the gear train. Hope in a future new release Bachmann will use metal gears.
