HO RTR 53' Wabash Plate Trailer Bison Transport #1 (ATH72807)

An HO-scale, ready-to-run 53-foot Wabash Duraplate trailer in Bison Transport livery (unit number one), designed to add authentic intermodal equipment to HO layouts. This model recreates a modern highway trailer used in freight service today and is ready to pair with HO-scale road tractors for realistic road-to-rail scenes.

Fully assembled and feature-rich, it includes separate etched metal hazmat placards (where applicable), painted etched-metal mudflaps, and detailed exterior elements such as a painted roof, lights, conspicuity stripes, and door closure rods. It rides on eight rubber tires with a sliding tandem and sand shoes applied with removable glue for easy customization. The Wabash Duraplate design remains a common sight on highways and in piggyback/intermodal service, reflecting the mid-1990s shift to 53-foot trailers and offering an authentic addition to intermodal fleets on HO layouts.
