    I have one on my current HO-scale model railroad layout! Since I mostly use nickel-silver Bachmann E-Z Track, I put the Prestomatic ramp on a 1/4-inch styrofoam section (from Woodland Scenics) cut to fit underneath and made up in the same landscaping material as the railroad yard I installed it on, and Mehano track-clips to link the E-Z Track with the 9" Atlas Code 100 nickel-silver track section on the ramp. I also upgraded the boxcar with knuckle couplers and metal wheels for better performance, as I do with most of my old TYCO freight cars.

    I love those Tyco action accessories. I grew up on them during the 1970's and 1980's. Thanks! I got the log unloader at the train show in 2021. The three logs were too 'heavy' for the system so I sub them with lighter batch of doll sticks

    Kinda would be nice if these kinds of accessories were still being made for the modern Model Railroad Track Systems like Bachmann.

    Super. Someone someday will hook this car up to the rails, add a DCC decoder, and be able to unload boxes anywhere. Hello from the Tracy Mountain Railway in Colorado. 💙 T.E.N.

    Nice video... but it would have been nice to have seen it drop more than one box and to see you load the boxes into the car
