Hi all

A quick question I hope

According to https://www.bachmann.co.uk/product/category/161/class-55-%27deltic%27-d9009-%27alycidon%27-br-two-tone-green-%28syp%29/371-285a

The new release of their Class 55 Deltic Alycidon has a "Driver Figure Fitted"

Just got mine from Rails and there is no driver fitted or in the accessory bag

Should there be a driver or did Bachmann just copy and paste the details from the OO Version ?

Their site also says it has sprung buffers as well which it does not

Thanks for any input on this

Certainly reads like they've copied the OO gauge blurb. I note the 66 also says it includes a driver figure, which they certainly never have previously. The 37 also says "directional and cab lights", which it doesn't have, so I'd take any of their specs with a pinch of salt. As you identify it certainly doesn't have sprung buffers.

Thanks

I contacted Bachmann and they did quickly (within a couple of hours) confirm the error in the listing, they had as suspected copied the info from the OO version, so no driver and no sprung buffers.

Trivial to fit - just lift the body off and the cab interiors are part of the chassis, not the body.
