| Description: | 07554 TANK TRAILER On the American continent, as throughout the rest of the world, liquids are transported daily. In addition to foodstuffs such as milk, fruit juices and other liquids, industrial raw materials such as oils, fuels and fats roll back and forth across the United States. As these include both non-flammable and flammable substances, suitable tankers have to be developed. One of the largest manufacturers of such vehicles is the firm Beall Trailers of Portland, Oregon, USA. Since 1928 the firm has developed tractors and trailers for the petroleum industry. With the functional design and excellent workmanship of their vehicles the firm very quickly gained a good reputation which laid the foundations for their present day success. Distinguishing characteristics of the shiny semitrailers for petroleum and hazardous goods, which must be equipped with highly visible warning labels, are a really low weight combined with a high pay load. A typical trailer from the Beall range is the 2-chamber 4-wheel semitrailer made by Revell as a model kit with chrome components. This trailer, with its fifth wheel coupling that rotates through 180 degrees and adjustable pick-up plate, fits all tractors.
