I have already thought about doing that especially with some of the “ new” old machines coming from Diecast Masters. I have four single axle tractors and one tandem axle tractor plus a Don Mills 1960s Rogers lowbed. I need some 1/50 scale 1960s pick ups however to make a realistic diorama. I bet Quinella could give us some insight as to what was on those construction sites in the 1960s, he must have been in his late 70s back then so he should remember.

Hello gents,

I have been chasing for ages any of the Athearn Ford "C" truck models on that side of the pond and couldn't get one so far.
I just found recently this Union Pacific Railroad version left... in a Swiss model railway shop:



Very nice model overall (even its bed wooden boards can be removed): pity that Athearn have dropped their O scale trucks model range!

Cheers.
Guy

Didnt see 1 Athearn Ford truck for sale. My buddy has the 850 pumper in his fire station scene.
