Nice to see you can fit 6 Power Wagons on the Menards Auto racks. MTH"s open Auto rack will only hold 4.

Looking good.
Do the Menards auto racks normally sit that low on the trucks or did you modify them? They look realistic compared to others that have the high water look.
Menards' open autoracks are built upon the 14" flatcars, which have a low-floor look, as well as roller-bearing trucks with rotating bearing caps. The enclosed cars are an entirely different set of tooling, probably based on a shortened MTH premier car.

The Menards auto racks do ride low.
jini5 Could you please tell us the approximate length of each of those trucks. I may want to put two on a 9 or 12 in. flat car. Thanks, turtle7

My real one. 1954 with less than 20K miles. I have had 5 of these. This is the last one and the best of the herd.
Nice truck Arthur !
Where does one find open auto racks on the Menard's website? Or are they so new they are not on there yet? I can find the closed ones.
Those are actually from a little while back, sold out instantly.
