Add some profitable mail and express freight service to your railroad with this great conversion for the Bachmann On30 rail truck! Narrow gauge railroads have used all sorts of rail vehicles thru the years for crew transit, track maintenance and occasionally even to turn a profit ... our shop foreman took one look at the Bachmann stakebed rail truck and quickly decided that it would be a great start for cutting costs on the railroad's profitable mail and local freight services.
Kit includes detailed freight box, grab-irons, railings, rear steps, stakebed cleats and a ventilated roof that's perfect for those who want to add sound.
