STRASBURG RAIL ROAD #59 Grasshopper Level Animated Stock Car (BAC12807)

Strasburg Rail Road No. 59 Grasshopper Level animated stock car is a detailed livestock-car model designed for model railroad enthusiasts seeking a touch of movement and character on their layout. This animated stock car recreates a traditional cattle car with see-through wooden sides, letting animal heads peek through windows as it rolls along the track. Each roadname edition features one of four animals on board — cattle, horses, llamas, or reindeer — bringing a bit of whimsy and realism to the scene.

Powered manually and compatible with DC and DCC model railroads, this car features opening sliding doors, a separately applied roofwalk and brake wheel, magnetically operated E-Z Mate Mark II couplers, and detailed trucks with see-through sideframes. It rides on blackened metal wheels with RP25 contours and includes added weight to help it track smoothly. The painted body carries precise graphics, and each roadname edition highlights one of the four animals aboard, adding authentic livestock-car detail to a layout.
