Long Island O Scale Premier DC-3 Rail Inspection Car With Proto-Sound 3.0
Overview
Railroads have long recognized that good track and roadbed are essential to any successful operation. Regular inspection of the hundreds or even thousands of miles of track is a regimen that smart railroads don't dare to skip, and MTH presents a car built just for that purpose. Modeled on the Union Pacific DC-3, which used a magnetic induction method to check track for rail flaws, this rail inspection car will bring a new dimension of operational realism to your layout.
M.T.H.'s unique DC-3 car, with its specially designed sound set and PFA sequence, is available in three new roadnames, so railroaders all over the country can keep the tracks in great shape. No maintenance-of-way fleet is complete without it.
Did You Know?
Because rail inspection cars often stayed out for long stretches of time, the DC-3 was redesigned in 1957 to include living quarters for its four-man crew.
