My N-scale DD40 died not long after I got it new. Ran good until then. I've had it with Bachmann...

All the years I've used N scale I avoided anything from Bachman in all respects.

And HO Bachmann, but word has it, Bachmann has upped their game in the past 10 years, HO and N.  Personally, I don't buy Bachmann but some like Bachmann.

You need to know about this site - Mark Peterson "Spookshow" has an online encyclopedia of N with blunt and accurate assessments.

And in this case, there are three distinct generations of this model:  http://www.spookshow.net/loco/bachdd40ax.html

Most of the N modelers are over on Railwire.net, Nscale.net, and Trainboard.
