Dynamic Running Base-Stationary Engine Display

Dynamic Running Base - DRB

Stationary Engine Display

Designed and Manufactured by JAK Tool And Model, LLC

The Dynamic Running Base utilizes standard JAK Rollers and provides a finished looking display for your engines. The standard display comes finished in oak, but can be custom manufactured to meet your exact specifications. The DRB is supplied with track and a quick connect power terminal. The JAK Rollers are located in the pit beneath the engine which allow for stationary use. Bases are available in a wide variety of scales, sizes, and fabrication methods. Our DRB system is available with a museum quality clear display cover.

Purchasing a DRB:

Purchase a DRB to fit the largest engine you plan to run. Small engines fit on Large DRB's, but large engines do not fit on small DRB's. Most model railroaders purchase a DRB to fit a 4-8-8-4 size engine. In O Scale, this base is 36" long. The second most popular size is a DRB to fit a 4-8-4 size engine with a 30" overall length in O Scale. If the wheel base of the drivers on the engine is longer than the pit where the rollers sit in the base, you need to go to the next size base, or order the exact dimension you are looking for.
