i say bachmann and walthers are great but if i had to choose it would have to be bachmann there just great![:D]
it depeds, I think bachmann has nice engines, but I think walthers cars are much much better.
How is this relavant?
I agree 100%.
relavant to what?
Relavant to anything
Great! Another pointless poll! trainmaster, this getting really old really fast!
It’s a poll. Simple as that.
My opinion still stands firm: Any polls, other than the “Trackside” series, are pretty much worthless, including any polls I may have posted in the past. I, along with many other users, hope that the polls will be removed from the common user’s posting options, thereby making them only available to moderators and administrators.
Just my [2c]

Ok, to answer the QUESTION, walthers since they have P2K and their cars are great. Now, to the ones that are griping, polls are used to see the opinions of others about the STATED question, not your opinions about polls. Yes some polls are useless but others are good, not just the trackside ones. If you dont like polls then why look at them? Is it just to boost you post count? I think I have said enough.

I like Bachmann.[:D] Their Spectrum engines, in my opinion, are excellent. Not just the new ones, but the old ones, too.[:D] The new standard line stuff is also pretty good. I’ve got the 4-8-4 Niagara, and it runs smooth and quiet, and the detail is nice.[:D]
Since I don’t own any samples of either, “None of the above.”
Or below, or to either side.
Let’s hear it for Adachi, KTM, Kawai, Toby, TER and Tenshodo.

Walthers Trainline Ok. Their Premium engines, definitely thumbs up.
Bachmann standard line CRAP Spectrum Ok. They have some serious quality control issues that need to be addressed.
Since its obvious you are new to the forums, this poll is NOT “pointless” or “useless”. As a newbie you are trying to get an opinion from the people already in the hobby. Perhaps some of the long time posters out there who have seen these “useless polls” time and time again just ignore them and let the people who want to encourage newbies answer these polls.
By the way my vote goes to Bachmann for Locos and Walthers for everything else!
You are trying to compare apples and oranges in this POLL. Bachmann makes locomotives, Walthers handles everything we use for mdel railroading. They bought Life Like, so if you want to compare LifeLike locomotives to Bachmann, now you can have a proper “comparison” POLL.
Bachmann, why?
Because they have pricing that allows entry level people and low income folks to participate in the hobby.
Walthers, adjusted for inflation is now selling very nice plastic at the price of Brass just a few years ago. Beautiful for collector’s items but allowing the elite to be the only model railroaders. (gross exageration).
Model Railroading is FUN!
Even though the cover no longer says it.
