Critical to the maintenance departments of most major 20th century railroads, steam-powered Crane Cars and Boom Tenders provided the means to lift and maneuver heavy equipment, from track and bridge sections to railcars being recovered from a derailment. Returning to our N Scale line with new paint schemes and road numbers, Bachmann's Crane and Boom Tender feature a fully assembled 250-ton steam crane & separate car with boom tender. The crane can swivel 360 degrees for complete prototypical action and be raised and lowered to suit your scene.
