Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

Crouse Cartage Freightliner & Doubles - By Gary Smith


This Crouse Cartage set of doubles from Gary Smith started as an Athearn "Ready to Roll" model. The Freightliner cab has been shortened to 63" BBC and mounted on a 6x4 frame per the prototype. A-line fuel tanks, scratchbuilt battery box and spare tire carrier, and Lonestar Models wheels and tires for the third axle were used. Trailer kingpins have been moved back to 36" setting.
