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!!

Wow, that's a good one...
Daryl, try visiting any and all flea markets, auctions, yard sales, and any toy sales. I've found the harder vehicles in places like those, and I'll go into any and all toy departments in any store looking for vehicles. (Yeah, my wife loves the big kid looking in the little kid section ) You never know where you'll find them, but they are out there!!
