“The early 1990's brought a number of small sets for the Train theme, and most of which are now quite hard to find even on ebay. One of the earliest however is '4546' - a Road and Rail Maintenance vehicle that sports small model which can be run on either 9v track or, thanks... More to its wheels, on the road.”

“The truck is used to keep the tracks clean and detect any track irregularities and point malfunctions. Unfortunately, LEGO did not immediately release the Road N' Rail Repair digger with the truck. That might have triggered quite some LEGO cities to replace the 12V rails by... More the new 9V system much sooner. But well, when the rail and road digger was finally released, a lot of LEGO railroad officials decided to put it to good use, both for the older 12V tracks and newer 9V railroads.”

“The Lego 4546 Road and Rail Maintenance is just a vehicle addition to the Train set. It doesn’t run on any track at all, it is a Lego truck with a minifigure, and cleaning material. The set includes 77 pieces, and would make a great addition to any Lego Train Set.”
