Shoot, I didn't see that when looking at that page on my phone.  It's a stretch, but maybe try contacting the larger stores like Trainworld and MB Klein to see if they had one returned and kept it as a parts source?

They're $11 in the online parts store.   Why not just buy one from there?

Are you talking about the current version of the street cars they are using or the old ones?  When I Googled Cincinnati curved side streetcar, it show pics of both.


When I Googled "Cincinnati Car Company" I found that they went out of business in 1938, so I would assume the poster is referring to the original streetcar design.

So the 8 wheels aren't the same diameter as previous model I find it hard to that out of the whole Bachman range there isn't 8 wheels left anywhere!!

I know how you feel!  Just the other day I contacted Chevy about a part for my 1988 Nova and they said they no longer had parts that were that old.  Unbelieveable!

Mr. B.

There are many posts on this board that offer good advice and help.

It would be nice if there was a "Like" button, as Facebook has, so you can click the like button rather than cluttering up the board with "good idea" posts or, as in most cases, doing nothing.

Cheers

Roger

Ummmm...no.  If you want likes, please go over to Facebook.

Today's kids are for more savvy than a paper catalog inside a toy box under the tree.  Today they look up the name of the company, go online, and search their online catalog.

Paper catalogs may have been exciting 50 years ago, but that concept doesn't work today.

So you bought an out of production locomotive that was damaged in shipping from a vendor, and this is Bachamnn's fault?  Manufacturers cannot be expected to maintain parts forever.  Would you complain that your local Chevy dealer doesn't have a fender for a 72 Vette in stock?

Try to fix the shell yourself, or have a parent help you ship it back to the vendor for a refund.

Original link works fine for me too.  That's using an iPad and Safari to view it.

And frankly Bill, you're sounding like a bit of a crank and am not sure why you seem to be taking out this trouble on me.
Contact Bachmann Customer Service if you like but, I don't know where that is going to get you for something like this.

I'm enjoying the irony that he's ranting about quality control while spelling "Amtrak" every possible way except the correct one.  ::)

Those Tyco Chattanooga Choo Choos were notoriously bad runners even though there are folks who collect them. You might consider getting yourself another engine that is not 30 years old - try a Bachmann engine (and no I don't work for them!)

He already has a Bachmann engine, the one from the Chattanooga set (see http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/products.php?act=viewProd&productId=1211).
