It can do bending of 1" high rail and the purchaser can pick it up at the GGLS club facility.

Steam Transport Board
April 22, 2025
Hi,
I have a live steam transport board for the back of a pickup truck. It measures 73.25" long and 43" wide with two 7.5" tracks to hold a locomotive & tender (or whatever fits in the space) plus "U" shaped rails and eye bolts to attach hold down straps.
It cost me $250 to build, but will sell for $75.
I can deliver to GGLS.
Thanks!
