Bachmann’s ‘Big Haulers’ (possible future project)
(just another project rambling)
I remember my grandfather owning a whole Bachmann ‘Big Hauler’ 4-6-0. However, being the rather destructive child I once was, it got damaged. It wasn’t too badly damaged could’ve been repaired, but I didn’t get to it in time before it got thrown out.
After finding the little 2-6-0 christmas train that I was hoping to repair and convert into a narrow gauge ROD loco, I remembered the huge ‘Big Hauler’ and set about to find it on the Interweb. Soon enough I found several results and am now planning to see if I can acquire one again. Of course G scale is huge and I’d have no space for it right now but if I could get one earlier than later I reckon it’ll be better.
Being battery powered, the locomotive doesn’t need electrified track and therefore is ideal for temporary track plans.
I remember how big the initial locomotive was and the wagons were huge too. I just about have room for O gauge, so going into this new plan is more of a loose sketch for now.
But I have my eye on those ‘Big Haulers’ and one day I will have one again!
