Did an actual road test today to adjust the brakes. Literature says they hooked up to 3 X trailers in train . It remains to be seen . My goal : Do a 3 X 10 CWT trailer train for real .

What did you use for the red jewels in the reproduction T plates? I couldn't see any reference to that.

Thanks Bob . Backing up is definitely a challenge but i am practicing .... Robin , they are called licence plate jewels . New made in China , made of plastic and available at .50 C each on Epay. You tear the screw and bolt off . ... Pretty close to originals from afar ... The glass ones were $29 US each ....Thanks Ed , really appreciated .

NOS Trailer sockets
It was Xmas today . Received two NOS trailer sockets in the original packaging . These were used on the 5 Cwt Scout car ( Jeep ) to plug in the trailer pigtail . The trailers to be used in train need one each of these so the park and stop lights work ... I suspect the were installed facing the rear on a bracket instead of their designated spot on the left side of the frame. Pictures show something hanging from a bracket on that side . If the socket was installed sidewise it would be awkward to plug in the following trailer and an invitation that it be torn off . I will show what i mean in pictures soon .

Here we have the NOS MB/ GPW trailer socket in it’s place on the trailer frame facing sideways . It’s a perfect fit , even the four holes are pre drilled for the bolts . Only problem is if installed this way the trailer plug is facing sideways when inserted . An invitation to have it ripped out . I surmise that seeing this , someone at Army design woke up and suggested it be installed facing rearward . I Will illustrate in the next insert ... more to follow ...
