  • Bachmann has partnered with Amtrak® and Siemens Mobility to bring you an industry first - our brand new ALC-42 Charger is arriving just as the real units are being delivered from the factory! Based on the highly successful SC-44 Charger, the ALC-42 is designed specifically for cross-country service on America’s most scenic and storied routes, displaying an updated appearance with a new nose profile and cab door configuration. Thanks to both Siemens and Amtrak®, Bachmann’s ALC-42 has been developed using original design documentation and employs prototype field recordings for maximum realism. Features include a TCS WOWSound® CD-quality 16-bit 44,100Hz decoder with Audio Assist® for easy configuration without CVs, and a Keep-Alive® device for uninterrupted operation, even over dirty track. The WOWSound® diesel-electric locomotive package includes an authentic horn, bell, prime mover, startup/shutdown, compressor, cooling fan, coupler close/release, brake release/application, crew alert, grade crossing quill, station announcements, and more. Take charge of your long-distance passenger operations; bring the Amtrak® ALC-42 to your HO scale railroad.

    This is the video production quality I dearly miss from ModelTrainStuff. Nice job with the editing!

    These look great, just wished there was a DC version

    • @BachmannTrainsUSA
      @BachmannTrainsUSA  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      These are dual-mode locomotives, meaning they will work natively on both DCC and DC layouts.

    • @CraftyFoxe
      @CraftyFoxe 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ​@@BachmannTrainsUSA That's interesting it's a dual-mode, I wonder how well that operates. But, I think it would be cool if there was a basic DCC-ready version to make it more affordable. I loved the Bachmann Amfleets by the way, they run great!

    • @seankolker

      Maybe some of us don’t want to spend the extra 100 $. We do t need the DCC. Then again some of us don’t want to buy Bachmann- thanks to this being “exclusive”. Maybe I want it from Athearn Genesis or Scaletrains. I’d rather have a scale model not a toy like Atlas or Walthers like you

    • @southmassrailfan
      @southmassrailfan 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know some private model rr company is making one. MTS doesn’t make the models, they only sell them. These ALC’s are made by Bachmann (obviously) and they have made a Acela set so i would assume when a official Avelia train set comes to service then they will make one. Hope this helps!

    I think next year 309 and 310 should be added because 309 is the first ALC-42 to be in Phase VII paint and 310 is the second.

      These currently run with Amfleets and Superliner consists, so there's plenty currently available to run them with - as for the Airo train sets, wouldn't that be something...

    What about the VIA , is the VIA charger getting released at the same time, and are you doing passenger cars too (VIA)

    • @BachmannTrainsUSA
      @BachmannTrainsUSA  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Our VIA Charger will be shipping at a later date, as some tooling changes are necessary to replicate the different features found on the SC-42.
