Here's my attempt at assembling a fleet of Reading MOW trucks in S Scale (1/64) at minimal expense. I used the Circus City RDG decals. These were stock models, only one of which was modified.

The first truck is a blue 1958 Chevrolet Apache by M2. Just a simple decal application.

The second truck is a blue 1965 Dodge by Greenlight. Again it just took decals on the doors to finish the job.

The third truck is a yellow 1965 International by Johnny Lightning. Here I built simple frames out of Evergreen styrene and used N scale (1/160) wheels to create a basic hi-rail truck.

The last truck is a what-if-the-Reading-were-still-in-the-railroad-business? It's a yellow 2014 Ram crew cab from Greenlight. It came with the snow-clearing attachments. I figured the Reading would need to clear snow from its facilities. Most visitors would not notice the time warp.

I seem to be unable to upload my photos. If someone could explain how to do it, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
