Reply to "Early Piggyback project (1940-1957) late steam early diesel & some of the very first 85-89' cars in 1957-1959!"

Speaking of early piggyback "variety" the models in the photos I attached could be some further options for consideration. Dinky produced this Mclean very common van and the Corgi 1/50 Mack combo is really the nicest early tractor trailer set produced in 1/50.

I refuse to bring those over-sized for 1/43 New Ray tractor trailers into this discussion. I got into it with a "trad-3 railer" over in the O-27 forum about these. He stated they look great on a 42' flat car. A 34' van hanging over the edges on a 42' flat. Never mind the 5' tall tires. I love these beautiful models however like the beautiful stuff in 1/64 they are unusable a no issue. Sadly
