Oscar Shaughnessey Construction Company hauls the majority of their bulk products in Heil pneumatic trailers pulled by their three axle heavy haul Peterbilt 379 tractors. The Peterbilts have the drivetrain to withstand the heavy gross combination weight of the twin 40' pneumatic bulk trailers.
Both the tractor and the trailer models are brass models from Classic Mint Collectibles. This tractor was kitbashed from a four axle version into a three axle variation with numerous accessories applied, including the addition of Dennis Aust five hole steel wheels in place of the standard aluminum wheels. The trailer dolly was scratchbuilt using left over Herpa parts. The "Oversize Load" signs are from Zycon Models.
