Look ma, no converter dolly!

Odd is right.

 

i think it only exists in your video game...

 

Its a variant of a B-train. Very common here in Canada.


B-train: Tandem truck, tandem lead, tandem pup.

Super B: Tandem truck, tridem lead, tandem pup.

Another variation is tridrive truck, tandem lead, tandem pup. I also have seen them in a tridrive truck, tridem lead and a tandem or tridem pup.

B-trains aren't twin 53' though. I don't know the exact dimensions off hand but I'd estimate that the lead's about a 40' and the pup is about 32'.

 

When the lead is tandem, both axles are behind the cargo portion of the trailer. When the lead is a tridem, the third axle is positioned under the cargo portion of the trailer. They are most common as flatbed or chip trailers but B-train/Super B vans are out there.

 

Well we thought u had gave up the trucking idea , but i guess we can assume u have been going down that rabbit hole much further and somehow made it to austraila? Man that was a deep rabbit hole

 

I see them a lot hauling steel, but virtually never have I seen a b train van set up.

 

I saw somebody made his own hillbilly South Dakota super B with a couple step decks, he stuck a fifth wheel right on the back of the deck of the lead one, 2 53 footers is apparently the right way to haul hay to him.

 

Those in the top picture are flatbeds, not dryvans.

 

I have never seen a b-train set up like that game one, with all the axles behind the trailer like that.
Just looking at it, I tend to think it is just something the game came up with, but who knows.
