Bachman Amtrak Acera's model

A model convention is currently being held in the United States, and after reading the newsletter received from the trading company, I realized that Amtrak Acela from Bachman N-Gage had been discontinued without realizing it.

It had been in the catalog since it was released so I didn't even notice it, but when I looked into it carefully it had been removed from both the online ordering system and the catalog. There's a bit of the unsold Amfleet Cafe (Am Cafe?) in a bit.

Bachmann HHP-8 Amtrak model with Amfleets

It didn't have a very good reputation due to driving problems, but it's quite sad when it disappears. I would be happy if they didn't learn this and built other vehicles. Kato's Amfleet ended up finishing the game lol

The photo shows the Hippo (HHP-8) I missed and pulled out, and the original Acera painted Amfleet (lol). I've never seen an actual HHP-8, but I met Amfleet when I visited the US in 1999, so it's a bit nostalgic. Ah, I want to go to America quickly to get my hands on iron lol
