Model History and Information: This 1:50 Diecast Masters model represents a 40-foot skeletal trailer in black, listed in the Diecast Masters transport catalog as item 91024. A skeletal trailer, also called a container chassis or intermodal chassis, is a semi-trailer designed to carry a shipping container, and a 40-foot chassis takes one 40-foot container. Truckers use these chassis to deliver containers between ports, railyards, container depots and shipper facilities. The replica shows the open frame, three axles and front landing gear of the type, and the Diecast Masters catalog pairs the skeletal trailer with its 40-foot dry goods sea container in its truck combinations.
