17052706 - Peterbilt Container Semi Trailer - Pacific Intermountain Express/PIE Logo (HO Scale)

Even at the first glance, the Peterbilt container semi-trailer announces the freedom of America’s highways. The imposing appearance of the American bonnet tradition in the trucking business makes the Peterbilt so typical of those years. WIKING miniaturised the prototype in order that a typical US truck could be driven in the 1:87 scale. By means of this model, the traditional model makers are also linking to the history of the prototype, because the original was once in the service of the US forwarder PIE, who provided logistics services between 1927 and 1990.
