The all new USA Trains Bi-Level auto carrier has arrived In Stock at most of your favorite hobby shops. Be cautious about buying these as they are indeed huge monsters with a large amout of fragile detail. These will require 10ft minimum diameter curves and at least “Wide” swtiches but would run best on #6 swtiches. Also these can’t handle a tight “S” curve. You need at least 3ft of straight track in between your S curve. These also seem to be not so freindly to run in a string with short rolling stock such as the 40ft rolling stock or smaller. They will run best with USA Trains 60ft box cars as that is what the Bi-Level was actually designed to run with. Most will find converting to body mount Kadee couplers challenging as the couplers are no standard height.
All in all it’s a great modern piece of G Scale rolling stock with a high level of detail.
Sorry you would be incorrect with that statement, I do not have stock in USA Trains and I don’t represent USA Trains. I am however a G scale hobbyist who so happens to like to run USA Trains products. I posted 3 seperate posts announcements about USA Trains products for others to read who may also like to run USA Trains G Scale.
After all isn’t that what a hobby is all about? Passing along information that may be of interest to others.
Did you notice only the Santa Fe Bi-Level has the “Trailer Train” road name on the flat and all of the other Bi-Levels have the “TTX” road name? Very interesting how USA Trains changes little detail like this. I can’t wait for someone to post a video of these in a long string
Attention to detail in operation is one thing, in paint thats another. I have tried to rethink this and I guess in order to run the cars with all my others , I need to buy new trucks . anyone want to buy brand new 36" wheeled trucks??
