Nothing new again this week. Here is a picture of Bachmann N Scale CSX 4 Bay Hopper. I hope to buy this in a week or so. Post away guys and gals.

I enjoyed the weather today. I figured I had better do so, as the next four or five days is just a repeat of what we've been having so far this month.
Coming home from work, the mail lady had left me a goodie. This little (HO) RTR sucker has DCC/Sound and runs smooth from a crawl ( 1 or 2 scale MPH) on up! Amazing what they can do now.

NJ Transit rosters four GP40 units numbered 4300-4303 which have been rebuilt to GP40-2 specifications for non revenue service. All four are of New York Central/Penn Central and Conrail lineage. Pictured here is an Atlas N scale model of the 4302:

Andre:
Are those Bachmann models?
Bob
Hi Bob!
Yes, it's the completely new tooling HO scale 4-4-0 that Bachmann has started releasing.
They are a game changer for those of us that like the old wood burning era. (Correctly sized, SMOOTH running, and factory installed Tsunami DCC/Sound.)
You can't imagine how tiny these engines are until you see one. Here's a quick pic I just shot with it sandwiched between a smaller diesel switch engine (Alco HH660) and a standard 40' boxcar.
To be so tiny, the fact that they run and sound so good is simply amazing. Oh, and the motor is in the boiler NOT the tender as they used to do "back when".
I intend to get a total of about six of them over the next few months.

Hi, Andre.
Bachmann has upped its game noticeably the past few years. I have Bachmann's model of the Susquehanna Chinese SY class 2-8-2 and it's one of the nicest steam models I've ever owned in any scale. Congratulations on your acquisition of those newly tooled American types and enjoy them in good health!
Bob
