HO / HO 4-4-2 Atlantic
May 03, 2016, 08:09:52 PM
Dear Bachmann friends:

Any plans for an HO scale 4-4-2 Atlantic in the future?  This was a fairly common steam locomotive on many roads and is not well-represented in HO these days.  Mantua made one years ago that was adequate but lacked a lot of detail and the cab wasn't correct.  MDC made a kit as well in the past that was also OK.  I have both of these for my Ann Arbor RR, and converted both to DCC.  However, I think Bachmann would be the right folks to come up with a new model that had the same excellent level of detail as your 4-4-0, 2-6-0. 2-8-0, or others.  I know Bachmann would have a very popular model and sell a bunch of them!
