CLT dolly

Hi all. Just finished the first part of a 3 part build. 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 dio with a special theme I have in mind. anyway here are pics of the first part of a three part build.
The container is about 30 feet in 1/35 scale, at least according to the scale calculator that I used. I also had to kitbashed the small engine generators mounted on the dollies 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. Hope you like the pics.

I think you're misunderstanding me here. The 30 feet is scale 1/35 not actual 30 feet. It's arounf 26 cm long in 1/35.
