It's weird I see this character appearing just as the franchise went SOUTH BIG TIME. To see Bachmann has done this is wild. I think they need more colour (USA color) contrast in the face v moustache. Is that the KATO track system, if so that's classy stuff. I was given a KATO track layout and it really impressed me.

Honestly, looking at it from a business perspective, it makes perfect sense why they decided to make Beau. They already have an abundance of different 4-4-0 toolings, and here is this obscure CG series character that fits the bill perfectly. It’s a very cheap and easy way for Bachmann to get some more money off the license and you can hardly blame em for taking that route with that in mind. It was also the fact that the tooling already existed why they didn’t add the buffers up front. Personally, I think that’s for the better. He looks way better without the buffers and it just makes him look more American.
@thenorgalofthehills5688Ай бұрын
SIDE NOTE: as for Beau’s good pulling power, that’s probably because of his fitted traction tires. That’s standard on all Bachmann 4-4-0s given their lightweight
