Would it be possible to convert a Bachmann Class 170 into a 185? What would you require?
Hope someone can answer
Cheers guys!

I’m not too knowledgeable on modern units, but how similar is a 185 to a class 450 which I believe Bachmann make?
I thought of a 350 too, but then I remember reading something about the windows being a different size maybe?I imagine if you're not too fussy they're not too far apart although the 450 will have a pantograph pan and obviously the cab ends are totally different. I was going to suggest a 350!
I wasn't aware that Bachmann produced a 450 until now, and I've just visited a fairly well-known retailer to see how much it costs:I thought of a 350 too, but then I remember reading something about the windows being a different size maybe?
It would take a brave person to start chopping up hundreds of pounds worth of Bachmann model whichever you bought though.
