The links list below will get you some images that are great for scenes in the background, and will also help with filling out a terminal. If yoiu have trouble downloading the containers, email me and I will email them to you.

The next site is a Dutch website that features some container images that are excellent. Just click on the image until it comes up. Right click the image, choose ‘save as’ and save the image to your hard disk as a JPEG image.
Further down the page is a number board. 23 through 27 are American truck trailer images. Download these as you do the containers just above.

Thanks again for the Trailer info. nice detail. Just a question and an idea. on the norbtah dupont trailers on my epson printer they need to be printed in landscape mode along with the other trailers on the site. otherwise you loose the back door. I printed mine on card stock and they are nice and heavy.
2nd question I used Elmers Glue all pen on one and it worked well. Do you recomend another type of glue to better hold them.

Thanks for the help
