Round nose trailer

[Superpeterbilt]

I was talking with a forum member about this, so I thought I would share it with everyone. This trailer comes as a piggy back on a G scale flat car. It makes a cool vintage trailer. I forget what happened to the landing gear. Here it is.

Yeah theyre pretty cool. Bad part is, since you have to buy the train car with it theyve gotten a little pricey. The flat car could always be resold though.

You lost me when I saw the hinges. This one looks a bit too smooth all over to me, too. Might be a good starting point, though.

That is cool, just right for that 1940- 50's truck.

I remember seeing a cattle pot / livestock hauler when I was a teen with a round nose. Seems like it had wooden slats on the sides also.

Are those the wheels and tires that came with it? I bought a Bachman trailer once and had to replace them because they were really toy like.

Actually, on further inspection I must have put wheels from the Ertl flatbed on it.

I'm old school through and through, an I love the old round nose trailers and I can't wait to start scratching one! Or two or three......

Looks more aerodynamic than modern trailers,

Looks cool but its a shame about the over scale hinges. But on saying that it would not be to hard to replace them.
