I just don't understand why their american page is so un-user friendly. I love their British page...it'll list new items long before their american page (such as when the new 4-6-0 was announced)
It isn't a big deal if they aren't currently producing it, just check on ebay. (I searched for Bachmann 4-8-4). There are currently 38 non-N&W Bachmann 4-8-4s on ebay (avoid the expensive buy-it-now...the only Bachmann 4-8-4s worth $140 are the Spectrum versions). The biggest caution here is to know which version you're getting. If it is factory DCC equipped, it is the current version. (Bachmann plus engines date from the 1990s and are ok...they typically have too strong of springs on the rear and lead trucks which I clip to improve pulling power).
