I have got my food tank trailers from Herpa. They are German models of a prototype that is not sold in the US or at least has the company has no sales office in the US.
My questions are:
1. Is there something I have to change mandatory to meet US standards, regulations etc. for food trailers?
2. The top one has the little 45° tilt rectangles for warning signs. Explosive etc. and a number identifying possible dangerous load. I think I saw similar signs in the US? Are they required for food too?
3. Most, even heavy, US trailers have two axis only. Should I remove one to match higher axis loads in the US?
4. US trailers have the axises often at the very end because more space is available for wide turns. Should I move the axis to the very end?
Thanks for your help in advance
