All wheels were gauged for HOn3 track. Dave notes that people don't realize how small this railbus is. The main body is only a little over 18 feet long (the main bus is 4" long and 7/8" wide and 7/8" tall). It has a NWSL 10mm x 25mm can motor in it. Railbus #4 was built in 1925 with a two wheels on the front. In 1927, it was upgraded with a four-wheel truck with trolley sideframes.
