Peter,

Bachmann has done a great job with part numbers.  If you need a part and have the part number from the diagram you can go to the parts page of the site and type it in the search window and if the part is available it will pop up.  Many parts are not available, or may be part of a larger assembly. 

If a part number is the same on two different diagrams for two different locos then the same part should work interchangeably.  As for the 4-6-0 there are differences between the Annie and the Standard line Big Hauler version, but if the part number is the same on both then the part will work in either. 

Anyway I am not sure the above is helpful, and from your post I am not sure which version chassis 4-6-0 you mean. 

Cheers,

Bill
