Bachmann Donald and Douglas Review: Thomas & Friends Range UK vs USA!

"Bachmann Donald & Douglas"

This is a product review which looks at the Donald & Douglas, the Scottish Twins, models which are the United States of America, and made by Bachmann USA.

The models are put through their paces, with style, speed and sheer POWER tested to the limit!

The review finishes with a startling conclusion: which will come out on top?

Parents will find buying the Thomas & Friends engine of choice easier with Hornby VS Bachmann....!

[TheRandomationStudio]

you didnt do donald and douglas tug of war

[simierski]

@TheRandomationStudio - what would be the point of that? They're the same model with different aesthetics.

[Zaphodraptor]

No offense Simon, but I'm getting tired of Team Thomas cheating. Can you please make them play fair next time?

[simierski]

@Zaphodraptor - have you seen the diesel review yet?! XD

[benskiproductions]

Where do you get the bachmann thomas range from?

[simierski]

@benskiproductions - trainsontime.

[Chris9017]

It's sad Hornby never made Donald & Douglas. But I'm glad Bachmann Did. I have a Donald on Order, and when I have the money, I will have a Douglas too.

[theIRISHshunter]

In your Edward review you have a converted take along (I believe) Hiro could you please detail in a video how you made each converted take along model.

[modelrailway100]

@benskiproductions you can also get them from transport models in preston but the bachmann range is not on the website so you will have to contact them about buying anything from the bachmann thomas range

[startug]

Can't wait to see the review of Bachmann and Hornby Duck when Bachmann Duck is released.

[bluehairedgirlstudio]
