I'm not jcopilot here, but they would be the Bachmann HO scale ones.
We looked at the Bachmann Bobber caboose and the Mantua Bobber.
Looks like the Mantua has the vote for the time being.
Back to the O-Post, the Bachmann's body sides will pull away from the frame (two catchs on each side of the body, yellow arrows).
Start on the tool box side of the frame, (with the tool box, it is the stronger side of the frame) spread/pull the body outwards and off it will come from the frame.
OR
Just hold the frame with one hand and the body with the other hand and pull the body straight up from the frame and its done.
The quickly noticeable differences.
The Bachmann Bobber: Cast on body grab bars (sides and ends), cast on lights, three dimensional tool box, no roof grab bars or end ladders, heavy metal wire for the end safty bars and brake handle/shaft, axle ends go into the plastic frame, easy to seperate the body from the frame. Weighs in at 1.7 oz. out of the box.
The Mantua Bobber: Cast on body grab bars (side and ends), cast on lights, just a door for the tool box, cast on roof grab bars, has metal end ladders, light wire for the end safty bars and brake shaft with a round brake wheel, axle ends go into a sheet metal frame, the body looks like it is attached to the frame by four metal push ''pins". Weight unknown at this time.
