Why Railfans Carry It

Bachmann's page for the 5" - 6" Pine Trees says the SceneScapes trees are made to bring an urban or countryside railroad to life, and lists four features: for use with all train layouts, realistic colors, removable bases for more placement options, and a size assortment for added realism. The page states that the trees are suitable for all scales but most commonly used in HO, and that a pack holds six pieces. The manufacturer's photograph shows six conifer-shaped trees of different heights, dark green, standing on a grass-green field under a pale sky. Bachmann's SceneScapes Trees category adds that you can create your own grove or blanket a hillside in dense forest with deciduous and coniferous trees offered in a variety of sizes, and that the most common size and scale association is given in parentheses after each description.

In the Field

The page gives the model number 32001, a shipping weight of 0.5 lbs and a recommended age of 14 and up. The tree size is in the name: 5 to 6 inches. Because the page lists removable bases, the trees can be placed or repositioned, which is the placement option the page itself advertises. The category page carries a caution that the number of trees per box may vary from the photographs shown and that the count in each box is given in the product description; for this item the description says six pieces per pack, and the photograph also shows six trees. The page does not give a tree material, a base diameter or an assembly method, so none is stated here.

Who It’s For

An adult building scenery on an HO layout, or on another scale where Bachmann says the trees are suitable, who wants coniferous trees in a mid-height range, or a gift buyer for a hobbyist aged 14 or older. It is scenery only: track, trains and buildings are separate.

Alternatives

The 5" - 6" Pine Trees with Snow (32002) are the same size and pack count with snow, and the same page lists 5" - 6" Conifer, Spruce and Cedar versions. For different heights the same category offers 3" - 4" Pine Trees and 8" - 10" Pine Trees.
