Rapido Trains 403079 HO Scale 26′ Can-Car Dry Van Trailer Simpsons T403

Rapido Trains Inc. is proud to offer not one, but two styles of Canadian piggyback trailers! A first for the industry!

The two trailers are the 26’ Can-Car Industries Dry-Vans with and without side doors, and the 45’ Trailmobile design trailers, also with and without side doors. The 26’ trailers were widely used by Canadian National and Canadian Pacific for package delivery services, as well as trucking services and retail store owners. These unique trailers have the iconic ribbed sides with catchy graphics. Eventually they were phased out of service in the 1980s.

The 45’ Trailmobile trailers arrived in Canada in the mid-1970s, almost a full decade before they launched in the US. These venerable trailers also had the option for side doors, for easier access. Much like the 26’ trailers, CN and CP both had good quantities as well as small and large trucking services. Many wore a variety of colorful schemes, so crank up that memory machine and grab a few of these neat trailers today!
