Actually, the truck is a Matchbox, 1999 identified as a GM Bucket Truck. I have another on the layout that is a single rear axle lettered for a tree service. I don't have any "real" HO Scale vehicles on the layout, I came REAL close to buying an Athearn PRR Stake Body Truck, but for $17.00 I can buy at least five matchbox vehicles. They're close enough, and I've seen them on MRR mag's Great Model RR's too. So when I hit the lottery, then I might consider buying vehicles five times + more expensive! I've been finding that it's getting harder to locate "normal" vehicles. Have you guys been seeing that too?
PS- Thanks Dom!!
