Santa Fe Scania 143 Truck Tractor & 40' Piggyback Trailer - By Jeff Black


Here is a Scania 143 truck tractor that Jeff Black employed into service for his model Santa Fe railroad. Jeff used an out of production Kibri kit for this project. He added the following accessories to the tractor: Promotex air horns, mirrors, and exhaust stacks; Walker Model Service roof marker lights; a roof A/C unit from another Kibri kit; Plano Model Products cross over platform and frame steps. Jeff used staples for the cab grab handles and cut out the rear cab window. The Santa Fe Chief door decals are by Christie at Graphics On Demand. The trailer is a 40' dry van from Athearn.
