Product Review:
NASG Dispatch, Fall 1987
Notes:
The model has operating ice hatches and sprung trucks. The trucks, appropriate also for any PRR P70 coaches, were available separately. However, the wheels were originally gauged for the old NMRA standard, so they will need some adjustment to the current NMRA/NASG standard, if not yet so done.
