These KWs are the best out there. I love how tough they look. One thing though. The antennae are fragile. They break off easily. i take yellow or clear beads and slide them down over the antennae to the base. I then use "Locktite" to help hold them. Hope you like the pictures.

That is a really cool set-up. I would like to get one of those scraper trailers.

Nice rig, there is also a 3d version on shapeways too. It's a murray and there pretty nice.

Noraztrans; Do you have pictures of that version?. KCM toys has pictures of a Talbert scraper trailer. It's neat. The version here would max out withe the CAT 621 I am told. I think real version have eight tires per axle too. But this is a great model. You could actually cut enough of the axle cover to put in another set of wheels. I don't have the guts to do that however. I'm think about how you could take two Tonkin Rackleys and make a scraper trailer. By the way, Ill post pictures of the Tonkin CAT 627K on one of these Smith scraper trailers. CAW
