    Rumor from the shop is they are rotating out older trailers and getting newer ones in. Can't say anything towards braking type.

    The newer trailers I’ve pulled have all still had drum brakes.

    The newest regular orange TA series trailers I’ve seen start with 21. There may be some 22 and I just haven’t noticed. I don’t normally pull the orange trailers. We have a separate fleet of trailers on my dedicated account. From what I was told though, the first two numbers after the TA now indicate the year it was put in service.
