I started this trailer set about a year ago and its slowly got put on hold as you can see from the dust on the tanks. This is how it started out, I bought a used trailer from a friend and since i already had one tank, i thought why not start a set of b-trains

Awesome job on the trailers Kyle. Super clean builds.

You still have that knuckle boom that you were working on?

That would have to be one of the best tanker setups I’ve seen in a long time.
It’s that small details that make it really stand out, A ONE OF A KIND

Kyle very nice work the detail is great looking I cant wait to see it all finished up in the company colors..


Hi tamiya_trucker,

Have to agree what the others have said and the Ford looks right at home in front of it well done:D:D

Cheers Cossett

Great looking B Train. Are you going to paint the tankers or leave them chrome? Either way, they look very nice.

I used to say it all the time on the gt forum, but I'll say it again. I like the company paint scheme, Kyle. It's sharp. The trailers look great. I know most guys paint everything as an assembly, but I'm with you on the technique of paint parts, then assembling them. Looks so much better to me. You've done a great job with that.

Nice build!
That's innovative wiring work - complete MFU light functions to rear trailer?
Company colors really tie the whole rig together...

Yup, built that aeromax over at the garden forum a few years back. its got air ride and a c 15 under the hood and a mfu jammed the cab! :D The company color is from our family business we have. We haul fuel, propane and bulk oil all over Ontario.
