Introduction

Bachmann 58793 N Scale Thomas and Friends James the Red Engine #5

James is the No. 5 red engine. He is a medium-sized engine whose six driving wheels are not as big as Gordon’s but not as small as Thomas’. He has a fine scarlet coat and brass dome and thinks of himself as a Really Splendid Engine. Occasionally this leads to misguided ideas about the sort of work suitable for such a distinguished engine, invariably landing James in trouble. James is a mixed-traffic engine, which means he can pull both passenger coaches and freight cars. James is based on a Hughes Class 28 superheated 2-6-0 tender engine.

Bachmann carefully reproduces your favorite Thomas & Friends characters in N scale. All locomotives feature realistic faces, operating N scale electric drive mechanisms, highly detailed plastic body shells, and all-metal wheels.
