Absolutely fabulous, my 2010 Bachmann 47suddenly stopped working but it was stored for about 10 years I did fit a Bachmann decor when it was new so il remove the shel again and check for any loose connections Many thanks

Just bought one of these about 6 months ago. So really found it interesting. Really great reference video. Lots of practical infomation with all your "Do's & Don'ts@ Thanks again from dave UK modeller.

Great video very useful 👍

The models often come with oil like that from new. We tend to put oil on them like sewing machine oil. Bachmann in the UK sell parts, so I sometimes buy the cheapest model I can find and then buy a new body shell for the models that sell the highest or that are harder to find. The models should come with a guide to servicing and removing the body. These can usually be downloaded if they aren't in the box.

Could u do a 37 bachmann model please

[@PendulumStation]

I would love too! I'm actually on the hunt for some Class 37s which are a bit hard to find state side (that on my unicorn Class 43 that doesn't cost an arm and a leg). I may have a couple as early as this month :)

[@brickleyyard4966]

I got two one has a bit of a running issue that I think is a service thing would love to send it if u be up for servicing but its the cost of postage hope u find one I have to say the sound chip from Jimmy are amazing

[@brickleyyard4966]

And if u call bachmann thay still do the 3 pice snowplough I just got some for my 37s and that uses two slots not the nem pocket and thay are only a couple pounds

[@PendulumStation]

Oh man that would be great. I hate that the current snow ploughs use the pocket.

[@brickleyyard4966]

Just ring bachmann I haven't seen the 47 but j believe thay will fit as the 37 and 57 uesd similar bogie fames in modle form well in the way the 3 piece snowplough are concerned at least with out seeing 9ne in hand I can't say but looking to get one soon in the gwr so will let u know lol

[@brickleyyard4966]
