“The wagon is quite simple in design. It is not too long. It is long enough for the tractor and its trailer. The tractor is very detailed. You can move the front shovel upwards and downwards, but the rear shovel has got more moving functions. You can also move it left and... More right due to a turntable plate with hinge.”

“The Lego 4543 Railroad Tractor Flatbed is exactly what it sounds like. It is a flat bed Train wagon that you can put bricks into. The set includes 178 pieces, and of those 178 pieces, it has two construction machines, a construction tractor, equipment holder, and minifigure.... More The Wagon is kind of awkward, seeing how that the walls are made of panels that bend out; it could opened up on accident if it gets touched. But that gives it a nice look to the wagon, and it doesn’t make it a bad set. This would make a good addition to any Lego Train Track.”
