Yeah Brian that's what I was thinking - seeing them in the store I began to covet one of the UP trailers ...  :P

Here's a few pix of one of my N&W ones:



I'm not sure about "best trailers ever" - take a look at those tires. Seems a bit too much of a gap between the tires,

If this is your view of the trailer, you're doing it wrong.

But, but what if it's in a tornado scene and the trailer was flipped over....  :D  :facepalm:  :scared: :D

Just received my UPS trailers from BLW and they are incredible.  Should have ordered more!

Here's my UPS forty.


Thank you,

Well we have BLMA and TW coming, but....

Is it worth tinkering with MTL 89' or just leave them stock and replace them when Atlas does them?

I've got an order in for a couple of each.  Have never laid eyes on the MT ones.  Alway wondered why they just don't do a 3 pack without their containers.

What is wrong with the MTL ones for an as-delivered configuration?

They did a runner pack.

They have.  They released a kit three-pack years ago, and they released the runner pack a couple of years ago.  Now probably is a good time for MTL to offer another TT runner pack, before the other flats hit the market.
