Mr. Bachmann - Comparison photo please 4-4-0/2-6-0

Mr. Bachmann,

Would it be possible to post a clear photo of the 2-6-0 with the new 4-4-0 to allow modelers to get a feel for the exact size of the upcoming 4-4-0?

Thanks.

          B-Man,

      Please, Inquiring minds want to know.

         Thank-you very much, for going the extra mile for us.
    Just one of your fans,

Mr. B, If you happen to be taking pictures, could you also take one with the 4-4-0 and a combine and coach?  I am curious to see what it looks like with the passenger cars.  I am a little concerned that it would be dwarfed by, say, a five car passenger train.  If there are no pictures available a considered opinion would do.  I wasn't planning on getting one as it is a little on the light side for my needs (a 2-6-2 or 2-8-2 or 4-6-0 would be nice), but from the pictures it looks like such a neat locomotive that I might be able to make an exception.
Best Regards
Jim Goodridge

Dear Jim,
I'll try to take the photos tomorrow, and I'll add the cars. Grandchild #4 is due at any moment, so I may not be around...
Have fun!

An early congratulations on #4 grandchild Bach-Mann!  I have 3 grandsons and Grandpa  has introduced them to trains , And brother do I have them hooked! ( Future customers for you  )

Dear BR,
Stayed up 'til 2:00, gave up and went to bed, and the call came at 3:00. We've had the other two siblings since then. Noah Christopher arrived at 12:35PM, and all is well. No time for photos, however, and I'm fading fast...
Thanks!
the Bach-man
PS- Already has his first train set- Gordon's Express!

Congratulations Bach Man!

Good to hear that the future of model railroading is assured!

The great thing about grandchildren is that it is your duty to spoil them rotten and that you can love them - and then hand them back.

Hamish that was funny yet cruel. The only "hand them back" I got was the back of my papa's hand if I didn't walk a strait line. Congrat's B-mann.  You should have started them out by taking them to a real working steam railroad. That is what got me hooked back when I was 3, and Bachmann items was all my parents would buy me when I was young. Look at me now, I am a loyal customer of bachmann. Would like to see a Tweetsie 10-wheeler though.

Rock On & Live Strong, especially you Bachmann.
