Back in 1992, local Rail Engineers helped design our original Railroad Grip. Seems since then, they're packing more personal stuff, taking longer trips like the "xtra board"! There was also a need for a grip bag that could carry winter gear along with the typical lamp, radio and GCOR rule book or tablet.
COMFORT AND STRENGTH.
Upgraded durable Uni-Suede padded articulating shoulder straps for carry comfort cinch down with Mil-Spec A.L.I.C.E. hardware. Every stress point is double box stitched for peace-of-mind.

FAQ
Is the Rail King approved as a carryon on an airplane(metal rings) and does it only come in black?

Can you integrate molle panels?
While Red Oxx does not have Molle panels on our rucksacks they are outfitted with Daisy chain loops on both the ruck body and both shoulder straps. These loops are designed to work similarly to the Molle webbing.Daisy chains are webbing loops sewn to the sides or back of a backpack thatlet you clip extra gear to your pack using carabiners or webbing straps.

What is Ballistic Nylon?
Ballistic nylon is a thick, tough, synthetic nylon fabric used for a variety of applications. Ballistic nylon was originally developed by the DuPont corporation as a material for flak jackets to be worn by World War II airmen. The term ballistic nylon takes its name from the fact that it was intended to protect its wearers from flying debris and fragmentation caused by artillery shell impacts. This is a special grade heavier weight nylon fabric that can handle hard use and the black color helps hide dirt, oil and grease stains.
What colors does the embroidery come in?
Embroidery is only available in red.

Are there any interior pockets or dividers?
