Dan just posted an un-official report on the Bachmann Meyer/Mallet
interesting and very comprehensive!
Looks like another reason to find me a “good” NOS Connie!-who am I kidding, I’ve got to build up some rolling stock first!

Just who is the unknown technical advisor?

Okay, I confess. It’s me! -Brian 
Is there proper clearance in the mouth hole for a cigar?
Ha ha ha.

As in the space odyessy movie “Dave what are you doing there?” as he fiddled with the computer working’s in the space station.
Busy man, that feller. Think I’ll wait for the third generation to appear.

Anyone else waiting for delivery on these? I’ve heard several say they’re NOT getting one … who IS?

A popular eBay seller has discounted his price on these over the last two weeks. If they are in short supply then one wonders as to the seemingly low demand.
Who would want one of the ugly things?
I’ve got to say, I would probably like one. But I’ll wait to see how it fairs out and to see it in person, running. The wide radius took some of the splashandflash out of it, but it is still interesting.
I like, but at 1/20 its still likely too big for my layout and even at $600, to much coin for po’ me 
I like the looks of it but I need to know if it will work. I don’t seem to have much luck with getting loco to work much longer then about a year or less. I guess I run them to much. Or it could be they get dizzy going in circles and pass out. not sure what it is.

You are the very first American of my acquaintance who has stood up and remarked that he is ‘po’’.
I have rarely met an American who did not collect Porsches, Duesenbergs, marketing companies, oil wells, vintage aircraft, golf clubs [the facilities, not the bats], Ferraris or ‘fine art’ - sometimes all of them together.
On the train side, almost everyone I know of has a couple of thousand feet of track running around their olympic-sized swimming pools, back into a forty-acre train lot, and then out again into the purpose-built 300 by 120 train barn with full a/c.
Only kidding, of course.

WOW, by those standards, I think I should qualify for food stamps & welfare…
I so hate standing in line, tho…
I have number 235,723,573,475,982,374,568,923,749,827,349,568,723,497,623,946
Now serving number 3…
It’s gonna be a long wait…
Hey Andy, dont cut in line, thats MY block of cheese!
I think it’s a good looking loco, except for those curved tanks which just look kind of weird to me. I’d rather have rectangular tanks or a saddle tank, or none at all. But my opinion doesn’t count for much since I have neither the cash nor the wide curves to acquire and accomodate it.
I don’t like tank engines…
Funds aren’t the only thing that would prevent me from buying one, but it is the major thing!!!
I like the looks, have the room and appreciate it not being another “Colorado” loco…If funding weren’t the ever present issue, I’d have one in Kirkland, NOW getting "procedure-ized!!!
