AHA® Rail Truck





Small railroads everywhere have often built railcars in their own shops, and in many cases, regular trucks were equipped with flanged wheels and converted into rail trucks.
The AHA® is a beautiful reproduction of a classic rail truck.The model features a detailed hood, cab, roof rack and load bed with hinged sides. Power comes from a big Bühler motor. License plate stickers let you customize your truck.



The Prototype
Railroads have always needed small rail vehicles for track maintenance and inspection chores. Small railroads would often fill that need by equipping a regular road truck with flanged metal wheels to create a "rail truck." These were often simple conversions, made using scrap parts found around the railroad's shops. Some were successful. Some were not. But these unique vehicles have always been a fascinating part of the railroad scene.
