Graham Hubbard, Managing Director of Bachmann Europe said, “we were delighted to be granted the global license to produce the range of Underground Ernie electric trains in 2006. Since then we have worked closely with the creators Joella and other licensees to ensure consistency across all products and our own range sits well within the whole family of Underground Ernie toys, books and merchandise”.
