Bachmann class 43 Warship question

[Simon Glidewell]

Does anyone know if the existing Ultrascale conversion wheel set for the Bachmann class 42 Warship will fit the newly tooled class 43? I'd like to convert one to P4.

Cheers
Simon

I'd say no, if the blurb on Ultrascale'a Web site is anything to go by....

I dare say they're working on a custom Class 43 conversion set, but if you already have a Class 42 conversion set gathering dust, it might be worth stripping down a Class 43 bogie and seeing what's inside.

Thanks Dan. I don't have any wheels at the moment. It would seem odd if Bachmann have changed the transmission on an already successful Warship chassis.
