Hi,
I had a close look at the drawing at the bottom of the page: it looks like
the first three axles as well as the last axle are steerable. It also looks
like only the non steerable axles are powered.

Greetings,
David

PS: Now I'd like to see a (loaded) trailer for this truck!

And what do you think of building a 6-axle Scania tractor?

That's quite a beast. What size engine does it have? Do any of the wheels
raise up to reduce tire contact during non-loaded travel? How many of 'em
are steerable?

I'm curious as to how the two driven rear axles would be constructed with
suspension. That's something I've always wanted to build.

(...) That's correct. (...) I have a picture of another 6-axle Scania of the same company, together with a 5-axle low loader (Nooteboom), loaded with a drilling rigg. I haven't got a picture on-line. Dennis (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic)
