A new look for the Rail Truck

My light inspection cars were great for summer cruising, but the crew really wanted something a little warmer for the cold weather and those rainy days.   

Inspired by the East Broad Top M-3 motorcar, I set off to build an enclosed motor car.

I started with the Bachmann rail truck, and just cut away everything that looked like it didn't belong.   


Then I built up a body out of styrene, and now I have my interpretation of the M-3.
