Is that back bumper piece Lego?  I've got a very similar piece that's some
clone brand (got it in an e-bay lot).

Yes, it is.  I only have 2, they came in "Amazon Crossing".  (see
http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6490 ... they're at the base of the little
bridge.)  I remember when I got it I thought it was strange, since "normal"
slope pieces could have been used in the same place.

That's a fairly common piece in some train sets.  I never had any until
I got the 4561 Railway Express, which has a bunch of them in white.

I'm pretty much a "purist"... (I feel bad enough about using the silly-putty
to attach the badge to the grill of the truck!) :)  ... but I don't buy Lego
"clones".

As you should!  Silly putty, harrumph!  ;-) though I can't off-hand
think of a pure LEGO way of doing the same thing.

BTW, your wheel arrangement on that truck is very clever.  I'll have
to try that sometime on one of my models...
