Bachmann Crab on code 75 ?

#1

Post by Too Tall »

For some reason I can visibly see that the flanges on the Bachmann crabs look to be bigger/ deeper than most other post 2000 models, with the exception of the later (2011+ releases) which look to be more as one would expect.
I don't have any to measurments to confirm if what I am seeing is correct, so I ask anyone that has one if you can tell me the model number, how deep the flange is from the rim, and if you have ran it on code 75 (especially pointwork) with or without iissue please.

I have decided as there are no 2-6-0's in my collection, there really should be, and It needs to be LMS for a couple of reasons :lol: :oops:

It could be an illusion, bu tto me, it looks like the #13000 has shallower flanges than the #13908: (open images in a new tab and zoom in 300%).

Moderator note - I've added links to the images, but they don't expand to 300% by default. Depending on browser, manual zooming may be possible.
