[;-xmas] Hey guys, just got my Bachmann Climax!! I love it!! Comes with the different loads, hoses and all and looks real nice. Once this is painted up and detailed it will look as good as any brass I have ever had, And it runs great!Thinking about getting another so I can have two done different ways.Bachmann's Power is sure nice, rolling stock is to high and toy like but the loco's are great. Hope they come out with the Heislers now.....Jerry |

| Wish I could. Gave up on the picture posting just can't get it right...One thing is I think Bach outdid themselves on the Climax,the windows are glazed and the detail is great. I think it's better than the Shay.Just hope sales are good to entice them to keep producing these type of models.................. |

Mario,
The Whistlestop here in town just put one in their case and was asking $259!!! As much as I like to support my LHS...(I pretty much buy everything through them...unless it's only avail. online)....I will stick to ebay or an on-line for this purchase when I make it...100 over what seems to be the average going rate is just a bit too much for me to swallow.
