Bachmann 2-8-0 (Reading) - old (with pancake motor)

[HOSeeker]

I recently updated HOseeker.net with more Bachmann Diagrams including a 2-8-0 Consolidation.

Maybe this one will help.

Got a real letter from them about a week ago - with a much xeroxed copy of the parts diagram....

 and a note that many parts for it are unavailable....

 

Good thing that I don't need any parts!!

BTW those engines were what Reading rebuilt into 4-8-4's. Interesting Bachmann chose that model. Its prolly the largest 2-8-0 made.

I have an exploded diagram for Bachmann's old 2-8-2 Mikado #41-545-01. I could scan it for you if you would like.

I too sent an inquiry to Bachmann a while ago and have not received a reply. They have usually been pretty quick to respond so I wonder what the deal is.

The motor and gear train are the same in all of the old pancake motor Bachmanns, unfortunately the instructions posted for the 0-6-0 only show the shell removed, not a complete exploded view.

Are you looking for a specific part, or just trying to get it apart?

Sorry. You might want to try asking on the Bachmann forum if anyone has a diagram they can send you. I tried checking on some other sites and couldn't find any diagrams either.

Did you check out HO Seeker? They have a lot of diagrams on their site.

Did you look on the Bachmann site? They've been posting a lot more diagrams on their site lately.

Does anyone have an exploded diagram & parts list for this that they can share with me..

 

I sent a request to Bachmann a couple of weeks ago and have heard zilch
