In the perfect, natural progression for where N scale has been heading, Bachman has teased animated stock cars for N scale featuring horses, cattle and reindeer.  I can only assume little green Martian men will be the second release.

I'm guessing that'll only be $250.

Personally, I though the ducking giraffe car would be the best entry into the market.

If someone makes one I will buy it! 

When I was a kid one of my friends had an HO one (from Fleischmann if I recall correctly) and I was soooo envious!

The old ones used a special track segment to make the giraffe duck, but it occurs to me that today one could build an electronic obstacle detector (maybe with IR) that would make the giraffe duck for any obstacle without a special trigger track.  THAT would be cool!

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

Not till they add decoders so you can control the car.

Bachmann?  Can't be BLI with see-through sides.  :D

Duh - I just saw the Boxing Glove coupler.  Must be Bachmann.

Still awaiting a PRR B60b, with sheep sounds and in RailWire Express Agency livery.
