Aust-N-Rail - SAR 2 - Hopper, Pot Cement - Undecorated

Specific Item Information: Seventeen of these were built from 1967. Originally built for Portland to Broken hill traffic. They appeared in Victoria occasionally. Includes Aust-N-Rail injection molded bogies with metal wheels, decals and Micro-Trains Couplers

Road Name History: Although they may be molded in color, unpainted and unlettered, undecorated products are marketed to modelers who seek to custom decorate their models for private roads and/or road and/or company names that were not commercially produced by any of the major manufacturers.

Undecorated models are frequently also unassembled or only partially assembled and required modelers to be comfortable with glue, paint and sometimes solder in order to prepare their models for display. Materials for these models can vary but often include plastic, pewter and resin. Models may or may not come with decals or other decorations such as plastic signage, railings and ladders to enhance the appearance of the final product.
