I love the looks and materials these cars are constructed with. Excellent steel wheels, not lightweight plastic. Logs very realistic. The only issue I had was even though the item was sold as new, most all the tie-downs for the chains were gone or broken off. No big deal for an experienced collector, a mini drill and a couple of hours and I had them all working like they should. The tie downs were the only downside to this item. If you are looking for realistic log cars, these are the ones you want!

Overall it’s a good product. The detail is excellent and the trucks are modeled well. The couplers aren’t the greatest and I’ll probably change them to Kadee’s in the near future. I have a Bachmann 0-4-2 Porter and with the supplied resin logs, pulling the three log cars, the engine would slip climbing a 2.7% grade (1” in 37”). Once I replaced the resin logs with real wood it was able to climb the grade without slipping.

Over the years I've had an lot of train cars; however these are some of the best cars I've seen. First they are true to scale, nicely built and would look great on anyone's layout. If you want to enhance your railroad experience these cars are a must. They aren't cheap but they are worth the asking price. But be careful know the price you want to pay before bidding don't get caught with your pants down.

Bachmann "Spectrum" series are great models. I live in an area with a rich narrow gauge rail logging history and love it that Bachmann supply models of the type and quailty.

It's so different from HO it's just hard to explain. The quality is so much better than other Bachmann products I've had.It's so realistic and it just looks great. This doesn't look out of place on my ho setup like some on30 rolling stock does so it fits perfectly.
