Paul Moore also produced a line of kits, called "Little Scoots", which were designed to fit onto the mechanism of an Athearn Hustler locomotive. This four wheel locomotive was a cheap avenue of entry into model railroading, and the Little Scoot offered a low cost way of producing models of electric traction, both streetcars and intercity cars. The small size of the Hustler mechanism allowed for operation on tight radius curves, which meant that a very small model railroad could be produced.

     The Little Scoots were caricatures of their prototypes, but all the elements were there.

 Although some catalog drawings show axle centers for two pair of trucks, cars such as this Niles Car inspired interurban (above) were designed to also be fitted to Hustler frames, providing the model railroader with an inexpensive streetcar. There were many cars in this series.

Here are some other examples:

         A “Peter Witt” type streetcar.

Another streetcar

Deck roof interurban

 A self propelled gas-electric car.

This locomotive could pull a freight train or a train of conventional passenger cars.

           A heavy duty freight locomotive.

And an overhead wire maintenance car......

Moore also offered several small sized unpowered cars which were trailers

The Little Scoot cars were but a small part of a larger line of products produced by Mr. Moore. The Scoots used the Athearn Hustler for propulsion:
