Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey Circus Diamond T 981 Truck - By Erik Block


Erik Block submitted this model of a Diamond T 981 truck. The Diamond T tractors were made by the Diamond T Motor Car Company in Chicago. The model was built from a resin kit from Haxo Modele out of France. Erik painted it in the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey colors. Erik says he's not sure if the company had this tractor but it looks a little like the Dodge tractors they had after WWII. The wagon is a wooden kit and the flatcar is Walthers. The truck in the background is an Alloy Forms.
