Manufacturer Information:
Get it to the front, and fast! The 14-3/4? Long Army Flatcar with Army Trucks
When military units deploy across-country or overseas, the troops fly, but their tanks, trucks, artillery, and anything large and heavy gets loaded on flatcars and shipped out!
When military units finally get to "The Front," you don't want the troops worn out from marching there - no, trucks get the job done for them! Logistical support moves people, equipment, ammunition, and more.
The basics: The flatcar has a 14-3/4-inch length platform carrying two cargo trucks. The vehicles have white stars on the doors and authentic-looking serial numbers on the hood. The trucks have canopies over the cargo section and even a winch on the front for getting out of those sticky road problems.
Why you need this: This O gauge car allows you to recreate your own "Red Ball Express" of World War II fame. The scale flatcar has die-cast wheels and operating couplers. The deck has Army markings on the frame and wood planking.
There are four add-on wood wheel chocks per vehicle, and the vehicles are removable. The canopies have a canvas "wrinkle" texture and are removable. They are secured for transit by easily removable tie-downs.
This is a natural companion to the Menards® line of military flatcars and loads and a good fit for operators running trains with scale-sized rolling stock.
