Bachmann model trains are a part of a giant market, model trains. The model train hobby is American, it's British, it's German, in fact it's international. Who can forget their first look at a (now) antique Lionel train. Or their first Tyco toy train. But when looking over the history of model railroading, one name keeps cropping up over and over, Bachmann model trains.

Bachmanns chief competitors are names like: Athearn, Lionel, and Tyco. They all make quality products, but Bachmann still floats to the top. Their parts and accessories are second to none.

Let's take a closer look at Bachmann model trains.

Bachmann model trains has been in business for 175 years. In that time they have added immensely to the model railroading hobby. Bachmann supplies such items as HO,N, O, and large scale track, locomotives – steam and diesel – scenery items, structures, and organic items like trees, etc.

Bachmann is also a leader in DCC technology with their E-Z Command controllers, both wired and wireless. This technology can be used to control locomotives, turntables, switches, and any other item you would like to be able to control from a remote location, thus giving your layout a very realistic feel and look.

All the railroads are represented on Bachmanns locos and rolling stock. You can put together a layout with trains from Santa Fe, Amtrak, or Seaboard as examples. Of course there are plenty more where these came from.

The Locomotives range in age from antique steamers to modern diesels. Everything in between is represented as well. You can expect to find Shays, Big Boys, and Mikados on the steam side. On the diesel side look for SD-40's, Ge Dash 8-40's, and Fairbanks Morse. They're all there!

So if it's quality backed by long time model railroading experience, look no further than Bachmann model trains.
