New 4-6-0 Photo's and couplers

[dtpowell]

Dear Bach-mann,

This question may have already been asked, but will the new 4-6-0 steam loco in N scale have the new magnetic couplers? Also, it's been a while since we've seen a picture of the pre-production 4-6-0, are there any photo's of the production model yet. I am looking forward to seeing it.

Thanks, Dave

There are a couple of photo's of painted samples taken at Trainfest in a forum over on Railwire.

They look quite nice, as well as the other offerings from Bachmann.

Thanks for the link to the pictures Skipgear. I wasn't very impressed with the first early pictures, but the final product looks great. Bachmann did a good job.

Yea, thanks!  It is a little difficult finding real photos, even harder finding real specifications for driver diameter, and tender options.

It seems someone at Bachmann knows all this, and it would be nice to get accurate info to know what I am ordering.

Thanks,
Charles
