Bachmann B&O Royal Blue

[fastfour]

I bought the Royal Blue Passenger set in 1996.  The 4-6-0 locomotive is having an issue with the gears and I wish to purchase a new chassis however I do not have the box and don't know which chassis I should get.  Can anyone help me?

Hi Fastfour,

the Royal Blue set number is 90016 and that is the chassis that would match the colors of the body.  After a quick look I did not see 90016as being available.

I can recommend the 90088 chassis which will fit your loco perfectly but is all black.  If important to you you could paint the chassis parts blue.

Here is the link:

It is even on sale!

Looks like this one will be OK as well:

Both of these will fit your loco perfectly except for the blue paint on the wheel rims and other places, and either one has the latest reliable Version 5 chassis.

Have fun!
