Looking for a versatile piggyback trailer, ready to customize and configure to your needs? The Rapido Trains 45' Trailmobile dry van trailer, with side door, painted in plain silver and unlettered, supplied with a reefer unit in a polybag, is exactly what you need. With no markings or lettering, it offers a true blank canvas: apply your own decals to represent a fictional company or recreate a livery not in the catalog, or use it as-is as a generic trailer. And the configuration is up to you: mount the included reefer unit to make it a refrigerated (reefer) trailer, or keep it as a plain dry van. Its side door — an option found on the prototype for easier loading access — adds one more functional detail.
What sets this model apart is the prototype fidelity Rapido is known for. The 45' Trailmobile trailers arrived in Canada in the mid-1970s, nearly a decade before they launched in the US, and were used in good numbers by CN, CP, and trucking companies. A first for the industry: Rapido faithfully recreates this classic Canadian trailer. Perfect for loading onto your flatcars in piggyback (TOFC) configuration, or simply to bring a loading dock, rail yard, or period city street to life, this trailer will breathe life into your 1970s and 1980s scenes.
