One of the most versatile machines in railroading, the Kershaw Model 26 Ballast Regulator can be found on the maintenance roster of every Class 1 US and Canadian railroad. One the prototype, these machines spread and shape the ballast between and alongside the rails, preparing it for the tampers. This HO Scale model builds into a detailed replica and with careful assembly, many of the parts are positionable. The side wing plows can be raised and lowered by cable and drum like the prototype. The front transfer plow blade swings, and can be raised and lowered, as can the sweeping machinery at the rear. The model includes a full cab interior, plus decals, window glazing and etched brass windshield wipers. The kit features over 100 metal parts and includes complete assembly instructions.
