[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by orsonroy The three best manufacturers for high quality plastic steam are P2K, BLI and Bachmann Spectrum. Where those three manufacturers are placed in ranking is all up to your own personal preferences. My observations on each manufacturer's products (I own some of each): Bachmann Spectrum: the best steam on a budget. If you look hard enough you can find their 2-8-0 for something like $55, and it's one of the best plastic steamers on the market. They pull well. I'd spring for the Bachmann 2-8-0. It can be found for as little as $55 (Ebay or Trainworld), will run superbly, and will easily negotiate bad trackwork or tight curves. [/quote] Nice review in June 98 MR and in all these years have never seen one complaint.
