Default Re: New Lowboy trailer

When looking at the photos it lokk's like the hangers are wrongly placed on right hand side. What I have learned they should always be facing backwards, for safety reasons, never swing out against traffic. maybee they can be positioned both ways and just "happend" to be forward here.
Nice trailer but agree on most of you, a little 2 much $.
I will build one for my D8R and that will probably end up at 2 grand in cost but then it's so much bigger and a one off.
But I'm not supprized, there's a lot of money into hobbies these days. Remember when starting with us-trains in the 70's, had to import everything from states and could happily buy freightcars for $1 at Hobbies for men (not kidding, it was a train store).
Today people pays 30-45$ for each car and lacking all the fun detailing cars themselfes.
So I wish every manufactor success in the new offerings, it might wider the hobby and get more intrested in manufacturing other new stuffs to us who never will pay that money for a trailer.
