Wheels of Time Product Update: Sea Land 35-ft containers, PC-90 Piggy-Packers
Just posted photos of our pre-production photos of HO scale version of the upcoming Sea Land 35-ft container and chassis. Go here http://www.wheelsotime.com/wheels-of-time-limited/ for latest photos. We are aiming to opening reservations - pre-orders in the next couple of weeks for delivery probably in March.
We will be completing produciton of our PC-90 Piggy-Packers around January 17th. The much anticipated PC-90 Piggy-Packers will be arriving on your hobby store shelves starting at the end of the month, if no delays through U.S. Customs.
Early Container On Flat & Trailer On Flat Cars
Here are photos that I ran across in my collection. The first is a Missouri Pacific crane lifting COFC container on to a railroad flat car. The second is circus style unloading/loading of Southern Pacific PMT piggypack flat cars. Notice the Clejan flat cars. These all, of course, pre-dates Wheels of Time PC-90 Piggy-Packer which by the way will be released in late January. By the way, our PC-90 Piggy-Packers will have magnets in the lift. All you need to do is glue a piece of steel like from a "tin" can in the inside of your container.
Happy Holidays and Best Wishes for the Coming Year!
