Ok, here are some photos of the Bachmann Heavyweight cars that I recieved as a gift from a friend of mine. He asked me to liquidate all of his collection on E-bay, and gave me a brand new DCC set and these cars as a gift for doing so. 5 of them are Pennsylvania cars (complete set, baggage car, 3 4 axle coaches and an observation car), and two other SP Daylight cars (a diner and a 6 axle coach). These cars would look right at home on 22" radius curves and I am confident that you'll be happy with them.

Hopefully, you can see the details pretty well and some of the inside interior details. I would recommend these cars to anyone. I'll get my Athearn Streamlined cars down and snap some photos of them later tonight or tomorrow if you'd like. They have no real details, no lights, or interiors like the Bachmann cars, but on layouts with smaller radius curves, they look sharp and run very well. I *think* my MDC Roundhouse 60' Harriman cars are boxed in storage along with my Rivarossi 85' Streamlined cars, so unfortunately, I can't get photos of them without going out to the garage and pulling half of it out to get to them, but I will say that despite their lack of details, they also look and run great.

Best bang for your bucks in my opinion though? The Bachmann Heavyweights.
