Freightliner FLB86 & Empty Container Hauler - By William Braden


Here is a Herpa Freightliner FLB86 and specialized empty container hauler. The trailer started as a Con-Cor European style 40' chassis. It had one of the axles and the fenders removed and the landing gear replaced and lengthened to 50 feet. The rear container hangs off of the back, is secured by twist locks and cable, and has red flags displayed on the end. The containers are from Athearn and Walthers.
