Bachmann Model Trains

A long-established American company, Bachmann provides popular N, O, and HO equipment worldwide, both as a manufacturer and distributor. Bachmann is well known for the breadth of its selections, from computerized operation for serious hobbyist equipment to reliable lines of products for young beginning railroaders. Their Thomas the Train line makes a particular good introduction to new young engineers.

Thomas and all, Bachmann has also responded enthusiastically to the reburgeoning large-scale or Garden (G-scale) market. Garden railroading adds the final element to hobby trains--just like their big brothers, they are designed to run outdoors, even in rugged weather. Moving from home to outdoors answers all those can't-fit-it-in layout problems and lets an enthusiast run trains in a natural setting. Engineering takes on a new aspect, as you navigate the ups and downs of natural obstacles, and you can at last hear the whistle from a distance! Garden railroading is complex enough for serious modelers and simple enough to include the whole family.
