We love to build and ride.....
Engines of various types. We specialize in single truck and dual truck power. DC drive controls for smooth operation are designed to operate very efficiently with “Tom Artzberger” gearbox axle drive assemblies. Rolling stock is constructed with a rugged chassis and heavy duty trucks for stable travel and long durable wear. Our unique high power sound system gives your engine the realistic motive power that stands out at any meet.
