Fairmont MT19 Speeder with functional Interior. Thanks to Erik (ekankal) for beta testing this unit. There is also a speeder cart (kuid:101046:102066) available which will couple to the Speeder and has several custom loads. Reskins permitted as long as license is observed.

A speeder (also known as railway motor car, pop-car (in the southern USA), putt-putt, track-maintenance car, crew car, jigger, trike, quad, trolley or inspection car, and also known as a draisine (although that can also be unpowered) in many other parts of the world) is a maintenance of way motorized vehicle formerly used on railroads around the world by track inspectors and work crews to move quickly to and from work sites. Although it is slow compared to a train or car, it is called speeder because it is faster than a human-powered vehicle.
In the 1990s, speeders were replaced with trucks (usually pickup trucks or sport utility vehicles) using flanged wheels that could be lowered for on-rail (called road-rail vehicles or hi-rails for highway-railroad). Speeders are collected by hobbyists, who refurbish them for excursions organized by the North American Railcar Operators Association in the U.S. and Canada and the Australian Society of Section Car Operators, Inc. in Australia. Buster Keaton utilized a Fairmont M19/M19AA speeder that transversed Canada in the 1965 film, The Railrodder. Fairmont used three letters to designate car types.
s was a Standard Series' section car; 'A' was an 'Advanced Series' section car and 'M' was the 'Master Series' section car.
the MT-19 is the most common Fairmont motorcar. Two-seater. 'T' for 'two-speed' and '19' is Fairmont's notation for a smaller car. Various models produced 1966-1986.
many of the cars do not look like the originals because so many Speeder Hobbyists have customized them to suit their own needs and tastes. This car I have modeled, is slightly longer than most MT-19's as I didn't have any drawings to go by when I started this model in Gmax.
