Of course, they would bring them out now that I’ve totally repowered my old one. But HEY! This here proves that they really do listen![:D]

That’s a pretty good price too. I think they have an N scale version coming out too.
Yup, I need two!

I love the 45 Tonners, and the 44 Tonners with DCC are VERY reasonably priced.
It looks like the same old body though.will it be as nice as the spectrum 44 tonners?
BAH ! i was hoping for a pre 1910 2-6-0 with sound [|(]
oh well , congratz to you diesel guys !
ernie
I was hopping that they had came out with a non dcc version of the santa fe 4-8-4 that was cheaper.[V][|(][|(][|(][|(]
Yuk! I can see the same old Talgo style coupler mounts and huge holes in the pilot front and rear. That it a bit too toy like for me.
For On30 modelers, Bachmann also released a narrow gauge 4-6-0.
It still looks like a cheap toy…
Guys guys guys, that’s the old one in the picture. The new one will be better.
I hope so. Those truck mounted couplers looked mighty umm, ummm, well just wrong.
I have a feeiling it will be a reissue of the Spectrum DD40, with the only improvements being black plastic gears and LED lighting. Maybe they will do something about the pilots, but I don’t think we’ll know for sure until they’re released.
I still don’t see my B-15 Mogul…[V] grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
But that is fine looking diesel. Too bad I’m modeiling 60 years earlier then that!
Needs a B unit
Fw:
Put a 44 tonner in the middle. ![]()
Bachmann? Why would anyone waste their money on a toy? After having bought a few Bachmann locos, including a 44 tonner, I have been very frustrated and unhappy with thier sputtering and other annoyances. I just bought my first Kato engine and can’t believe how much better of a product this is. I rate Bachmann up there with Tyco and other toy manufacturers!
I didn’t know Athearn made one of those?? Did B&O even have any of those locos?
Hansel-Just curious. How long ago was it you had your bad Bach experiences??
Were your Bachmann locomotives their regular ones, or Sprectrum? I have a couple of their Spectrum, and they’re great runners. Just my [2c]
