50-Ton Trucks Released

Tangent Scale Models has released sets of new HO/1:87 50-Ton Trucks


You might have seen some of these new trucks under our recently released PS-1 40’ Boxcar system, announced in April and May 2021, and we are happy to say they are now available separately!

With multiple precision wheelset options, separate brake beams and rotating roller bearing caps (where applicable), these trucks are perfect for replacement options and new build projects.  Also, our all-new wheels have a front and back contour, as well as axle contour, based on prototype research.  They are second to none, check them out for yourself.
