PC-90 Piggy-Packer: coming Fall 2011

PC-90 from above, with raised boom (Wheels of Time image)After many (very enjoyable) hours of research and design, Wheels of Time is pleased to announce the Fall 2011 arrival of the Piggy-Packer, a large tractor for moving trailers and containers for TOFC/COFC operations. The Wheels of Time PC-90 Piggy-Packer is a highly detailed and historically accurate model based on the FWD Wagner / Raygo Wagner PC-90.

See more 3D models of Wheels of Time's PC-90, and some archival pics of the prototype, on the new Piggy-Packer product page.

In our next post, you'll read some of the interesting history of this great machine. Stay tuned!
