Reply to "Will Bachmann will make any more new steamers"

I talked with the Bachmann folks at the National Train Show in Portland not long ago. Mind you, we were talking about On30 at the time, but I got the real impression that there wasn't going to be too many new locomotives in any O scale gauge, for now.

Ah, Yakima. I've seen this loco in person many times when I was out that way for Uncle Sam. That said, I would think that the market for something needing overhead to look right couldn't be that great in comparison to the steam/diesel stuff they haven't done already.

I have always had a soft spot for juice jacks, but I kinda doubt there's a big enough market for this.
