Seems to me someone here on the board converted the Bachmann EM-1 into an AC-9 with a skyline casting and GS-4 pilot parts. Anybody got a link or will the lucky contestant please "Come on down".
Yup -- Carl built one. http://www.trainboard.com/highball/index.php?threads/sp-ac-9-build.74873/ http://www.trainboard.com/highball/index.php?threads/sp-ac-9-complete-almost.77913/ Wolf
Randy, I am the "lucky contestant", so I'll come on down. I am still active on TB and another forum so if you have any questions, I'll attempt to answer them appropriately. Main thing is, always have fun, Carl PS: Wolf thanks for remembering my build threads. BTW, she is still running fine and I have done some adjustments so it does no longer look like a "lowrider".
I still have my disassembled EM-1 and castings from Superturbine. I have a week off for Christmas and I was going to work on 6 dome tank cars but maybe I'll drag this out of my 'projects in progress' box and see what I can do... Miss you Superturbine, come back from the dark side...
I was ready to bid my way into happiness and chase down castings, etc but I got my parts for my Challenger and it calmed my anxiety. If they do another run of EM 1s I may hsveb to drive it a try.
