Hi all. For years I have been running my Acela set the way that it came from the set: two locomotives, one business class, one cafe, and one first class. Recently I have been considering upgrading it to the full 6 cars. I know Bachmann made seperate sale Acela cars, so so figured this would be easy enough...
Once I started looking in to it, I realized that Bachmann seems to have made every car but one business class for a prototypical set. Specifically, I have the beginnings of trainset 11 (the one with power cars 2017 & 2036). Because the Acela sets are semi-permanently coupled in real life, they always have the same cars together. I can find every car but business class 3531, and it looks like it was never produced. Is my only option for a 6 car set to have one car be an unprototypical road number ? Seems like something Bachmann would do. Thanks.
