Scania XT Snowplow - 42128 Alternate Model

Recommended Posts

Hello, I show you my latest alternative model, it is a Scania XT with snowplow and salt spreader.

In set 42128 there are too many colors in my opinion, so it was not very easy for me to build a truck that was not too colorful.

It features several functions:
- HOG steering
- working foldable crane and stabilizers
- liftable third axle
- dump body
- working snowplow
- working salt spreader via truck differential

 

The snowplow and salt spreader can be removed from the truck.

No pneumatic parts are used, they were too big for the functions of the crane / the snowplow.

I hope you like it!

Fantastic job, Marco! Impressive how you managed to build a visually cohesive vehicle with the many different colours of the original. Cab looks great, and I love the details like the red flags on the snow plow.

I opened this thread without really reading the title, and thought that's a very neat-looking truck, a reasonable size with nice details and good functions, and including a well-built HIAB crane.

Then I saw it was a C-model and I had to retrieve my jaw from the floor :grin: Fantastic work!

This is indeed very good! Well done!

Would there be enough parts to build a small trailer to add to the truck?

Actually there are 2 wheels and many parts, but I have no idea what trailer could I build?

Sand spreader comes to mind first.
