Athearns New 53' Wabash Duraplate Trailers

[Trucklover]

Hi guys, I FINALLY got Athearns 53' Wabash Duraplate Trailers after being on pre-order for since May 2008, i got 5 of the 6 sets i ordered, 1 of them has still not been released and is due to ship to me when it becomes in stock where i pre-ordered them. This is the WERNER Enterprises 53' trailer 2 pack, hopefully it will be shipping to me soon lol

So, as promised, here are the pictures of the trailers i got. I have to say, these trailers are BEAUTIFUL and ALMOST worth the wait LOL The small lettering is fair, being legible for the most part (in the pics below, if you cant read the lettering, its mostly due to the fact that i didnt get it focused right lol)

ALL the trailers come with 2 different trailer numbers. For each trailer there are 2 sets available, each set containing 2 trailers with 2 different trailer numbers, making a total of 4 different trailer numbers for each company in the current run by Athearn.

(Yes i used the same cab for all the trailers, i was too lazy to switch to a new cab for each of them hehehe, and also, i realize the landing gear for all the trailers are in the UP positions lol, i have not decided which trailers i will keep lowered for docks and which to raise for on the road)
