[skybluedragonator]

do the cab doors open?

[trainguy68]

@skybluedragonator No the cab doors don't open

[skybluedragonator]

in that first shot it looks like popcorn in the tender... cool engine though.

[kirbyfan600]

is it rc or electric

[trainguy68]

@kirbyfan600 It's regular electric track power

[corpestipp]

how much is the train in video worth? i have the same brand and sizze train

[trainguy68]

@corpestipp The loco is probably worth about $75 or so

[corpestipp]

i have one of thous trains. same brand and train, what are they worth?

[spudy1216]

I know this is a silly question buy on the RC vertion were are the batterys

[trainguy68]

@spudy1216 The batteries are inside the loco itself, I think it takes 6 x D's. To reach them you have to slide up the the black thing on the back of the boiler inside the cab.

[skl1cent]

nice train dude

[collectorfun]

Was wonderig if it´s rc and if this train take power fron the tracks or have a battery inside, thanks and nice vid

[trainguy68]

@collectorfun It's just regular track power, no batteries. Eventually I'm planning to build a track outdoors and then I might convert to battery power to save all that track cleaning! But thanks for dropping by.

[coolcatevan9]

is g scale the same as lgb?

[trainguy68]

@coolcatevan9 Yes it's the same as LGB and it all seems to be compatible.

[JBofBrisbane]

@coolcatevan9 - LGB pretty much invented G-gauge back in 1968. It wasn't until the late eighties/early nineties that G-gauge started to catch on with other manufacturers.

[Nascarfan3914]

Very nice train I too also have a few bachman trains that i got, the detail on them is just fantastic.

5 stars

[TheTenwheeler]

I'm thinking about purchasing the Anniversary edition of the DRGW 4-6-0, since I like the details and the 19th Century balloon stack. Five star quality.

[courtneydavis433]

i used to have the loco

[popupcamper1260]

nice train i got the golden spike one

[andersersand]

how did you film that?

[trainguy68]

The on-board shots were taken by laying a 24" length of wood across an open car with the camera balancing on one end - I put a small concrete block on the other end to counter balance it. I've got an older video camera which is pretty heavy - it would certainly be easier with a newer smaller model! The rocking around is not the engine, it's the camera bobbing up and down on the wood!

[gaycowboy31]

@trainguy68 very nice I havent bought any of the Bachman big haulers yet but after seeng this I most likelly should all I own is Accucraft right now

[ShellShock1967]

This is the first wood burning model I have seen of the bachmann big hauler series. I can only find coal models in stores.

[trainguy68]

The wood burners are mostly found in sets.

[JWPGScale]

I have four similar locomotives. I have never tried the sound, guess its not bad!

Thanks

[trainguy68]

Yes the sound isn't too bad, not the greatest but better than nothing! The newer Bachmann engines have an even better sound, in my opinion.

[dgr8zod]

Timing is wrong though; should be four exhausts per revolution, not two.
