I've updated the link. I am not sure why the news links I post don't always work. The story is indeed there. Argh, software!

 Good for Jack, From what I've seen of him on various forums, he's a nice guy.

Hi Rene, I hope that Jack is strong enough to be able to make himself heard and push forward some of the ideas that we railroaders put thier way I get good service from people like Bridget in there sales department but in the past there comunications has been sadly lacking.

While it will be a bit strange associating Jack with Bachmann products after he served so many years as an LGB promoter and enthusiast, one cannot in the least way fault him for taking the new post. I wish him well and am actually glad that Bachmann has hired someone who is a fervent supporter of the large scale train hobby and is skilled at promoting any products that will perpetuate the model railroading market.
