When Amtrak offered to haul Swift Transportationšs RoadRailer trailers on the end of their passenger trains, Swift was immediately faced with a shortage of equipment. Unable to pull trailers away from the Los Angeles - Portland train (a single paper company loads nearly the entire southbound train,) Swift ran to RoadRailer builder Wabash National and leased enough trailers to cover the shortage. These were added to the Swift pool and could be found on the west coast train, on Amtrak trains, and on the highway.
While the back door received the glitzy Swift logo complete with golden "S", the sides gave top billing to Wabash National with only a small Swift logo about a third of the way down from the nose end. These trailers carry WNCZ reporting marks (registered to Wabash National.)
This run is available in two different 10 packs and a single for a total of 21 different road numbers. Each 10 pack includes a CouplerMate rail bogie.
Note: This run is SOLD OUT at deLuxe so check your favorite dealer.
