Well it's a Limited Edition because it is selling for double the MSRP of an Unlimited Edition. Sent from my SM-J737T using Tapatalk
I think the seller has accounted for additional punitive tarriffs to keep this horrific looking set from immigrating to the US. Sent from my SM-J737T using Tapatalk
And that is why... I said... what I said. Obviously no-one at Bachmann sees the 'jacked up' flat car as a problem. I give the crane itself a passing grade. Sent from my SM-J737T using Tapatalk
By comparison... here is a Model Power crane with flatcar for buy it now $15.00 + 7.00 shipping https://m.ebay.com/itm/N-SCALE-Mode...noapp=true&pageci=8a03c3de-ed40-4395-98da-c53 Sent from my SM-J737T using Tapatalk
And the Bachmann version at a 'sane' price of $15.00 + $7.00 shipping. https://www.ebay.com/itm/N-SCALE-Ba...062&pg=2349624&_trksid=p2349624.c100930.m5375 Sent from my SM-J737T using Tapatalk
Were they originally that high riding?!? This is one that I lowered, as it did seem high when I bought it, but, I do not remember its being that high-riding. This is an older issue. I did not take a "before" photograph, so I do not remember. I do not k now which is worse: the price or the ride.
The Bachmann boom tender car is jacked-up to make the surface even with the deck of the crane car. The prototypes were typically either just left lower than the crane car deck, or the tender decks had platforms built up to the crane deck height on one end or even the whole car. But I have never seen nor heard of a whole car frame being jacked up like the Bachmann model.
A bit much maybe...?? https://www.ebay.com/itm/N-Micro-Tr...KQAAOSwdX5cmogj:sc:USPSFirstClass!80501!US!-1
But he knows...we all know...there is that one guy on this planet that will think its a steal at the price listed...lol
Z Scale, but indicative... Item is still available at MTL and likely at dealers at a discount... Or you could pay a premium over list of $6.73 AND some nice high shipping. Or you can pick it up and be charged only two bucks. https://www.ebay.com/itm/MicroTrain...447950?hash=item5b5adcdd4e:g:u9AAAOSwnm1dRLle
Bachmann N scale Union Pacific locomotive | eBay Starting bid: US $70.00 ... Price: US $92.00 ! I would give this person $5.00-$10.00 for the Shell if complete. Yes, of course that does include the handrails. Tom
