hey i just bought one of these and was wondering if you had problems with the wires in between the engine and the tender and if so how did u fix it

@Railroadkid1937 accually i just encountered a problem with a wire breaking, I sent it to bachmann about three months ago and just got a call from them yesterday. This involved me paying a 25 dollar service fee and long wait. Bachmann also couldnt repair the locomotive and want to send me a new one, the only problem is that they dont have any more Western Maryland so i asked for a C&O and for them to send the old one back. If they do i will repair it myself.

thanks man what's the web for the 0-6-0 or proto 2000 and could you shoot me a few companies that make 4-6-0's thanks

@atsf7809 the 0-6-0s are made by proto...They will be released this September. The 4-6-0 is made by bachmann Spectrum. You can pick them up for about $150-$170. Proto's 0-6-0 would probably cost you more just because of the extreme attention to detail, running, etc.

@abrownyo you know what's funny i just bought a western maryland 2-8-0 and i may have gotten the last one lol but then again i didn't order straigh from bachman the thing is I actually wanted the C&O but the site that I order from doesent have them which sucks cause it would have looked nice next to the 2-6-6-2 i bought which I am still waiting for bachmann to return to me after 2 months

[atsf7809]

question about the 4-6-0 is it possible to buy dcc equipped as is standard by all bachmann spectrum locos and add sound later and how do i order online with cash or do i have to write a letter to the company stating what i want and send in the money or would i just put it on a visa gift card and use it that way. thanks for the help!

[abrownyo]

@atsf7809 Well anything you get with dcc and sound is gonna cost you. But a locomotive from 54-59 for a short line...if your looking for diesels maybe an Sw-7 or a steam maybe a 4-6-0...or an 0-6-0 is being made by proto 2000 this year which is really nice

[atsf7809]

question i'm saving up money for a little railroad demondtration module that is set as a short line towards the the end of steam say 1954-59 and need a dcc equipped possibly sound equiped engine to go with it i've been looking at the mt-4 that athearn makes but it's out of the question cause i'm looking at shortline power does anyone know of a good engine for the time frame if so what is it and where can i get one cheap? please help me thank you
