A few weeks back, my wife and I took The Rock Daughters to their first big train show. They loved it, and that was expected… after all, we have a several trains here at Rock Father HQ, one of which is from Bachmann Trains. I’m always interested in seeing what they’re up to, and this year Bachmann Trains is introducing five new ready-to-run electric train sets in the two most popular scales at Toy Fair 2018 in New York. Today we’ve got early details on all five sets, along with photos of two of them!
HO North Pole Express
All aboard for a Christmas adventure with the HO North Pole Express, which includes a 2-6-2 locomotive and two passenger cars.
HO Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey
You can join the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus® and ride the rails with The Greatest Show On Earth® Special! This HO set offers a Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey F7-A diesel and two Red Unit smooth-side passenger cars.
HO Strike Force
The HO Strike Force honors the tireless efforts of our men and women in uniform. Its GP40 diesel locomotive and three cars all feature a camouflage paint scheme.
Chessie Special
The Chessie Special is led by a classic C&O® 0-6-0 steam locomotive that hauls four freight cars.
Merry Christmas Express
Bursting with holiday cheer in N scale, the Merry Christmas Express is decorated for the holidays and is ideal for a table-top display or around a miniature tree.
Bachmann’s sets include everything needed to get started in model railroading in one complete package: locomotive, cars, track, power pack, and speed controller.
Those attending Toy Fair 2018 can visit Booth 1135 or the public can hit www.bachmanntrains.com to see their full line of HO, N, On30, and Large Scale train sets.
