Funaro & Camerlengo Super Detail Part

Heavy Duty BUCKEYE TRUCKS

6-Wheel - 8'-6" Wheelbase

For the Virginian Battleship Gondola Car, Tenders & Others

Detailed Resin Castings with Brake Shoes kit

ITEM DESCRIPTION:  F&C Funaro & Camerlengo HO Short Wheelbase Resin BUCKEYE Trucks kit less wheels brand new in package! This kit will create one set of highly detailed Buckeye Freight Trucks.  Kit includes resin castings for trucks, brake shoes and reducer washer.  This kit does not include wheels since many modelers prefer using their preferred brand.

NOTE:  I sanded down one truck so you can see more of the "see thru" detail in them. The WHITE or GRAY (depending on the run) resin simply does not photograph worth a flip and shows hardly any detail in the truck. In fact, the trucks are highly detailed. One truck in photo is as it appears on the package, the other has been cleaned quickly. Sanding off the flash was done quickly with a fine-grit sheetrock sanding sponge. Cleaning out the see-thru holes was done easily but carefully with a #11 X-acto blade. Be prepared to spend about 15 minutes or so preparing these trucks prior to use for them to look right and work correctly.  Sharon Funaro assures me that they will hold up and last as long as comparable out of production plastic trucks such as those once produced by Athearn.

PROTOTYPE INFO:  These Buckeye Trucks could be found on equipment where heavy-duty 6-Wheel trucks were a must such as on the Virginian Battleship Gondolas, Locomotive Tenders etc. I also received the following email from a customer about these trucks: "I finally got around to measuring the center to center of the axles on my F&C Buckeye trucks. They are 4'-3" or 8'-6" truck wheelbase in case someone asks. Also, FYI, I just checked some railroad crane diagrams and Buckeyes with this wheelbase was used on cranes usually 200 tons and up. This was on both major crane manufacturers Industrial Brownhoist and Bucyrus-Erie."
