Tyler and Sons Trucking use their Kenworth rigs for the biggest of jobs. Here, they deliver a tired and weather-beaten PCC Streetcar to its final resting place.

Kenworth W925 w/King Trailer

First manufactured in 1963, the Kenworth W925 class 8 truck was the company's first wide-hood truck, featuring a small cab and windshield. Also known as the W900A, the W925 has a long-nose style and a distinctive "cathedral grille," and can accommodate up to a 600 horsepower engine. Its front axles are rated from 12,000 to 22,000 pounds, and its rear axles can range from 23,000-lb singles to 58,000-lb tandems. These trucks have been produced for a variety of functions from logging to long-haul trucking, with 38 to 72 inch sleeper cabs.

St.Louis Car Company PCC Streetcar

Designed to fulfill a need for a streetcar that could compete with cars and buses, the Presidents' Conference Committee (PCC) Streetcar was first built in 1936. The PCC was a gathering of the Presidents of United States electric street railways, who collected research to be used in the production of a high-performance streetcar. The resulting design was efficient, comfortable and had advanced features such as noise reduction, magnetic braking and resilient wheels. The PCC streetcar was so successful that it was exported to other nations (St. Petersburg, Russia had a fleet of more than 2,000) and many are still in service today with museums and heritage railways.

Corgi's 1:50 scale Kenworth W925 tractor features a diecast metal chassis with simulated rivet construction, and a classic long nose shaped cab and sleeper cab also constructed in diecast metal. The top of the cab has twin horns and a lighting system with simulated hand-painted lenses. Each side of the cab features a chrome mirror with integrated antenna, an air-filter and an exhaust pipe with simulated heat shielding. The rear has separately applied splash guards and a pivoting trailer mount, and the underside provides a clear view of the bottom of the transmission, rear axles with connecting drive shafts and offset fuel tanks.

Corgi's 1:50 scale PCC Streetcar has a chassis that is constructed entirely of diecast metal. When held to the light, a fully rendered passenger cabin and conductor station can be viewed through the multitude of individual transparent windows. The front of the car features a pad-printed route/destination, separately applied wipers, transparent headlight and bumper. The pole on the top of the car rotates and pivots and can be raised or lowered for display. On the underside are two pairs of pivoting axels with rotating metal track wheels and simulated wooden racks and bumpers.
