I will be using this in a forthcoming review. I must say that it is a fantastic model. Runs very well and is solid and strong. Perfect for hauling rolling stock around any layout.

As I don't know much about these Class 20 locos. Can anyone please tell me something about them? There are versions with disks and versions with head-boxes. When doubled-up, were the disk locos and head box locos ever mixed? Were they from different periods? Were head-boxes added to the disk versions to upgrade them?

QUOTE (cooperkenilworth @ 10 Jun 2006, 21:01) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I have a Bachmann Class 20, which runs beautifully, except when running nose first and taking the spur off a Peco 100 large-radius curved point. Virtually every time it derails, but never when running cab first. Anyone else have this problem and maybe a solution?

First thing to check IMHO is alway the back to back - invariably this is usually the problem.

regards
Brian
