The Mack Model "B was first produced in 1949 and remained in production until 1965 when it was replaced by the Mack Model "R".

The Model "R" was in continuous production until 2003. Both series of trucks enjoyed a long service life with many of the "R" models still in continuous service. Even today, a Model "B" can occasionally be seen in operation.

During their lifetimes, both types were used for any number of tasks. These ranged from two and three axle tractors to tow trucks, to construction trucks.

A Mack Model "B" or Model "R" could handle any job that required a heavy duty truck.

Athearn's latest "N" Scale vehicles are exact miniatures of the Mack "B" and "R" family of trucks.
