Railroad Model Craftsman's June 1977 issue puts the White Freightlighter
Tractor on the magazine's Test Track. Joseph M. Taylor reviews this model for RMC and states, "the prototype for this
model is the Freightliner Series 61 tractor." The prototype was a current production item, when the Athearn kit was
first released in 1977. The original Athearn release included two Freightlinger Tractors per box with a $3.98 retail
or you could purchase a Tractor-Trailer kit for $3.50.
