Bachmann question

Does anyone know if Bachmann sells the heavy duty, leafspring trucks mounted on the tender supplied with the Connie as a separate item? If not, can anyone suggest another source for such a truck?

Thanks

Walt

No. Unless you happen to catch them when a unit has just arrived that they replaced and will sell you the trucks for.
There are no parts.
Once said, every once in a while Kader makes something.
Never seems to be what they asked for, but at least something.

Are yours broken or just need a set?

TOC,

I’ve enlarged an Annie and it’s tender up to 1:20 scale. The original trucks just don’t look right now. I was hoping to be able to find a larger set (like the ones on the Connie tender) to replace them with.

Walt

I could suggest ones from the larger Aristo tenders…possible some Bachmann passenger car truck…seen that once or twice.
Other options are Accucraft, Simpson used to make some, etc.

I have a spare Bachmann Connie tender – the whole thing. Send me an e-mail and we can discuss whether you would like to have just the trucks or the whole tender.
