CLT Dolly

Model by Charles King

            

Hi all. Just finished the first part of a three part project. This is a CLT Dolly, which means "Container Load Trailer Dolly System". Since I couldn't find a 30' dolly I decided to go ahead and scratchbuild using some pics from off the net. This unit will be coupled onto a prime mover a modified HEMTT which I am about to start on right now. Later these two will be placed on a long diorama with a special theme I have in mind.

The container is about 30 feet in 1/35th scale, at least according to the scale calculator that I used. I also had to kitbashed the small engine generators mounted on the Dollys as I couldn't find one that looked right. So I just went into my misc. box and put something together that came close to the real ones. There are many variations on the CLT Dolly so I tried to copy the real ones as close as possible with some minor variations.

I hope you like the photographs.
