3 truck shay

Does anyone have any information about a Spectrum 1:20 scale 3 truck shay being released by Bachmann? Also, any idea when B’mann is releasing their new line of 1:20 scale frieght cars? While we’re at it, any word on B’mann’s K-27 or K28?

Hi I`m John in england havent heard any thing this end of the pond If I do will let yiou know

I know St. Aubins and Trainworld are already taking pre-orders. They are about $500! But looking at the prototype drawings on the St. Aubins site, it looks pretty cool!

According to Bachman site it will be released in December in time for Christmas.

It’s good to know that there are members out there that own a shay like my self . A matter a fact I like shays so much I also have one in “O” guage as well. I’ve been working on my mountain excursion for “G” guage only for a couple of days, this past weekend. I just want to know if you can mix aristocraft with LGB track and will it work or short out on me?.

Devilsknight,

You can mix Aristocraft with LGB as well USA with no problems.

Worth buying the Aristo drill/tap set, a bag of track bolts and some track joiners. Replace the LGB track joiners with Aristo ones, drill and tap the track and bolt together, that’s the great thing - for me - about Aristo track, it bolts together.
