Viking Freight Kenworth T800 Truck Tractor - By Bob Johnson


Here's more of Bob Johnson's Viking Freight Kenworth T800 truck tractor shown waiting at and crossing the grade crossing on the Texas Northern Model Railroad Club (www.texasnorthern.org) in Dallas, Texas. The tractor was built using Dennis Aust's extraordinary resin cab, hood, battery box and fuel tank mounted on a shortened Herpa Ford chassis with air suspension. The front aero bumper is a resin casting not commercially available. The airshield is from Jacobs Models, mirrors from Plano Model Products. All "glass" is .010" clear sheet. Decals are from Microscale. Previously featured in Photo Gallery 800.
