So many of the trucks look similar, especially from above. Those conventional cab trucks (light blue green) could be Fords, Navistar, or Sterling trucks. They would be late 1990's to current models. The cabover in the upper right corner of the pic could be a Freightliner, a Peterbilt, or a Kenworth. The Athearn Freightliner would work for that one. Cabovers became pretty much obsolete when the dot changed the federal law to set trailer lengths wthout regard to how long the overall length of the total rig is. Cabovers were used back when the overall length of a combination was restricted to 65 feet. I think the law changed sometime in the early 1990's, but it may have changed in the late 1980's.
