Hi all! I've had this one a while. I figure it's about 25 years old. I know it's a Bachman GP something High Nose. Not sure what number. It's got a 4 wheel drive truck with traction tires up front and 4 wheel pick up on the other end. It also has the brightest bon fire bulbs I've ever seen on both ends.

 Thanks!

Hi there,
It's a GP50, high-nose. I think it came out in the mid-80's (about the same time as the real one) and if IIRC as a high-hood was only correct for the Southern RR.

Thanks! That figures.[V] Good old Bach prototyping. I can only find Southern or NS. At least that's an easy repaint if I ever get around to it. This thing pulls like crazy!
