HO TRA-9 Flexi-Van Trailer Ansett Flexi-Van System (Union Carbide) - Twin Pack is a detailed model designed for realistic railway modelling and layout expansion in HO scale.

Featuring:

• Detail & Finish: The trailers in this twin pack feature the iconic Union Carbide livery as part of the Ansett Flexi-Van System. The design includes accurate printed markings, fine moulded details, and prototypical decals for a realistic representation of the original trailers.
• Drive & Performance: As these are rolling stock items (trailers), there is no motorised operation involved. The trailers are designed for smooth integration with powered locomotives for reliable and consistent movement across the tracks.
• Control & Compatibility: These trailers are designed for use with DC analogue layouts. No DCC capabilities are included. If integrating with a DCC system, additional modifications may be necessary.
• Couplings & Integration: The trailers are equipped with standard HO-scale couplings for easy integration with most common HO rolling stock systems. Close-coupling mechanisms are designed to ensure smooth operation and compatibility.
