True-to-Scale HO Container Chassis

This Promotex model is a 1/87 scale plastic kit of a container chassis built for a three-axle 40ft trailer. It arrives in the manufacturer's original unopened packaging. The officially licensed replica targets adult collectors and hobby enthusiasts who value accurate prototype detail.

Static Display Piece With No Moving Parts

The chassis has no openings and features detailed interior and exterior surfaces moulded in plastic. It is designed for shelf display or diorama use rather than operational running. The model holds its shape under normal handling but is not engineered for repeated coupling stress or weighted loads.

Simple Assembly Required Before Display

Some straightforward assembly is needed to complete the approximately 5.5 inch long model. The kit contains small parts suited to adult modellers; no specialised tools are mentioned. Care is needed when aligning the three-axle frame to avoid misaligned wheels or twisted chassis rails.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 1/87 scale container chassis draw when displayed continuously?

The model is a static plastic kit with no electrical components, so it draws no power at all.

What additional items are needed to assemble and display the 5.5-inch chassis?

Basic modelling tools such as plastic cement, a hobby knife and tweezers are required for the simple assembly mentioned by the manufacturer.

Will the 40ft trailer chassis couple reliably with older HO-scale rolling stock?

It uses standard HO-scale couplers, so it connects with most vintage and current 1/87 rolling stock without modification.
