New Bachmann F40PH: Is it worth it?

Jul 03, 2003 0 Replies

Folks, I hear on the 'net that the new Bachmann Spectrum F40PH is out. Now, all I've seen is the pre-production shell at the Springfield show, and that does not lend itself to careful comparison with the prototype. ;-) I have not been to my LHS, recently. Has anybody seen or have this loco? I'm trying to decide if I want to get one for MBTA service, as I'm right now leaning towards the Walthers model. How does it compare with the Walthers F40PH? How does it compare with the prototype? How does it run? You know, the usual. :-) In short, is it a piece of junk (like a typical Bachmann diesel), or is this thing actually worth buying?



Thanks in advance...
