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
Rail King Rucksack Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the Rail King approved as an airplane carry-on and does it only come in black?
The Rail King exceeds carry-on size requirements and must be checked. For a carry-on alternative, consider the C-Ruck or Roadster Mini Ruck, which are similar in design. The Rail King is made with 1050-weight Ballistic Nylon, and this material is only available in black.
2. What’s the difference between the Rail King, the C-Ruck, and the Roadster Mini Ruck?
The Rail King is constructed with heavier, more robust 1050-weight Ballistic Nylon, making it ideal for railroaders and tough rail yard environments. This fabric is stronger than the materials used in the C-Ruck or Roadster Mini Ruck.
3. What is Ballistic Nylon?
Ballistic nylon is a thick, synthetic fabric initially developed by DuPont for WWII flak jackets to protect airmen from artillery debris. Its heavyweight design withstands hard use, while the black color effectively hides stains like dirt, grease, and oil.
4. Will my rulebook, radio, and lantern fit inside?
Yes, the Rail King is specifically designed for railroader essentials:
The GCOR rulebook fits in the front raised pocket.
The radio and lantern fit in either of the raised side pockets.
5. Will a laptop fit in the Rail King? What size?
The front raised pocket includes a special slide pocket that accommodates laptops up to 15 inches.
6. Are there any interior pockets or dividers?
The Rail King does not include interior pockets or dividers. For organization, consider using accessories like the Nomad Toiletry Kit, Lil Roy Gadget Bag, or Tri-fold Toiletry Bag.
