General Discussion

I’ve less than 1.5 gig left for the month, and I can’t afford to burn it trying to download the New Bachmann Catalog…

anyone wanna go dig through to see what’s coming (or not)?

I tried downloading it, but it errored out on me.

I saw Bachmann at a train show this past weekend, though, and they said they’d announce their new products in July at the NMRA show. I wouldn’t expect there to be anything new in the catalog that we haven’t seen on the shelf or in their announcements yet. (They had copies there, but I didn’t leaf through.)

The Peter Witt trolley (1:29) should be here any day, they said, but that’s as far as they would tip their hat for new stuff we haven’t seen yet. There’s stuff in the pipeline for us, but we’ll have to wait until July to find out what it is.

Later,

I get the same thing as Kevin, the other catalog shows up no problem(the Williams one)

After waiting 20 minutes (on high speed ) to down load, There isn’t nothing new.

The K-27 is not shown.

There is a street car in 1/29 shown.

I successfully dowloaded the Bachmann catalogue yesterday Adelaide time. Sadly, there seems little new in large scale:

  • a beginner set “The North Woods Logger” which includes the Indy Mogul, a flat car with a log load and the 4 wheel non cupola caboose;
  • a painted (green) but unmarked Jackson & Sharp passenger car;
  • possibly some l’il hauler and Barnum and Baily stuff (and a combination of both) repaints, but which I can’t be sure about as I’m not an expert in the area;
  • And of course the 1:29 Peter Whit trolley (tram).

There may be a few other repaints (I think the Thomas tar tanker may be new), but that’s about it. Disappointing, really, but not unexpected given their situation.
