OK guys - don't know about you but where I grew up in urban NJ in the summer every day about 7 pm just after supper time the ICE CREAM MAN would come around the neighborhood in his white truck and kids would stream out of back yards like ants. I found this truck in Walgreens for the astounding expense of $5.99 and couldn't resist. It has quite an amazing amount of detail even including the little swing out "STOP" sign that you see today on school buses. It is going into my "Small Town" section of the layout so kids can get their summer treats even with the virus!!

It's basically a 1956 Ford F-100 chassis and cab with the refrigerator installed on the truck bed. This model was made by a company called "Kinsmart" and it is a little big at 1/38. It reminds me of the "Good Humor" ice cream trucks that used to come around our neighborhood although it does not carry a brand name.

Happy weekend fellows

Don McErlean
