Thanks a lot.

If you get the chance to see the movie ā€˜Loganā€™, itā€™s set in a future with self-driving trucks (basically a very short engine unit hooked to a trailer but without a cab). Iā€™d love to see your take on one of those sometime, considering all the trucking and sci-fi masterpieces you keep making.

I may have seen it back in the day, canā€™t remember. But will check it out.

Charles,

That my dear fellow, is a cool build! :sunglasses:

To satisfy my curiosity, that nifty device on the front of the trailer, is that scratch built or is that a kit? A marvelous invention to ā€œshuntā€ trailers around in a yard without the need for a ā€œhorseā€.

Can you please provide more information?

Kind regards,

Gavin

Hello Gavin. Appreciate your comments. The little hydraulic shunty was kitbashed mostly, with a minor scratch building; using a mixture of different small parts from my ā€˜box of tricksā€™. I used reference photos from various models I saw on the net. Each one with different load capacities.

Hi Charles,

Now that is cool on multiple levels! Build wise and originality.

Iā€™ll have to do some research.

Thanks for sharing.
