Click on the photos for more information!
  
"Speeders" are self-propelled vehicles that move the crew and supplies around the railroad -- some even carry freight, passengers and light equipment.  Kits include our superbly detailed resin castings with illustrated parts listings, color reference photos and our "fabulously" detailed instructions, plus a variety of ideas for extra detailing!
  
Add operating interest to large layouts by running a speeder or rail truck along the line between freights ... or run them on a tiny micro-layout.  The 371 Mudbug and Trailer will operate on 6" minimum radius.  The 372 & 373 Tin Chicken rail trucks will operate on 7" minimum radius.
  
(Finished samples shown with mechanisms, couplers and additional details not
included in the kits -- please see detailed descriptions for kit contents.)
"Tin Chicken" -- Stakebed Railtruck
Add operating interest as the Tin Chicken ducks into a siding to make room for a

take it out for a beer run!

"The Ruffled Duckling"
Railbus conversion for Bachmann railtruck
Improve passenger service and increase profits on your On30 railroad with this great little railbus!  Loaded with class, charm and terrific details -- from the riveted sides and ends, to the tipping end windows, thin-profile side windows and flexible seating arrangements.  Your townsfolk will love it!  Want sound?  The Ruffled Duckling is designed to conceal a 1" speaker in the roof and instructions include suggestions for hidden sound installation.  Fits Bachmann On30 railtruck.  (Click photo)

#383 Ruffled Duckling  ........... $49.95

"The Mudbug" -- Speeder and Trailer
Your crew will love this enclosed speeder and trailer -- great for track inspection, crew transport and more!
  
#371 Mudbug Speeder & Trailer .... $39.95
  
(Use power truck from OLD-style Bachmann HO Brill Trolley.)
NOTE:  Kit will NOT fit new Brill trolley introduced in 2006!

If you'd like to order additional trailer cars, see the SC-1 and SC-2 Service Flatcars under FREIGHT CARS.
ATTENTION / MUDBUG SPEEDER:  Sometime in 2006, Bachmann introduced a NEW version of their HO Brill trolley with a can motor.  The new version will NOT fit in the 371 Mudbug kit.  We plan to introduce another kit to fit the new chassis in 2007.
371 Mudbug requires the OLD (pre-2006) style mechanism shown at right.
Old version has a large "sandwiched" motor casing as seen here.  New version has a can motor and will NOT fit into this kit.
