HO 45' Fruehauf Z-Van Trailer Model (ATH16145)
A detailed HO scale 45-foot Fruehauf Z-Van trailer model designed for intermodal freight scenes on model railroads. It features separately applied mud flaps, rubber tires, a highly detailed injection-molded body, and painted and printed decoration for authentic, realistic display on layouts.
Z-Van trailers were built to withstand the rigors of both highway and rail travel, a hallmark of intermodal service in the 1970s and 1980s. The 45-foot version followed the original 40-foot design, with options like refrigeration equipment and varied landing gear and door rod configurations. Three distinct body styles emerged—ribbed-side, beaded-side, and smooth-side—with the latter representing the modern construction method. This HO trailer model provides a faithful way to recreate intermodal scenes from the 1970s through the 2000s on hobby layouts, pairing naturally with HO trucks and rail equipment for convincing road-and-rail dioramas.
