Some what based on SR&RL 5

.

Creds to Aginuzo for the front of the rail car.

Woah, did you miss me? Cool, here's a rail bus that would have been converted from a Model A. Several narrow gauge railroads made them, fitting to their track size. Some of them weren't as big as this, and could be lifted with a portable turntable like shown below.

.

Important Stuff
-Currently does not work on railway mod. To convert it, set the rotators for the trucks to free spin and widen the axles of the wheels accordingly.
-yes, flags move
-no, you cannot climb krakabloa with it

Controls
1 is main lights
2 activates rear lights
3 turns on top beacon
Brake will kinda slow you down
Trim is throttle
Roll steers
Landing Gear moves cab-camera position

Enjoy!
