Trailers

Hazard Express has had three different paint schemes on their trailers over the years. So far, I haven't seen any correlation between trailer numbers, make or paint scheme, except that the 45' trailers are numbered in the 4500 series, the 48' trailers in the 4800's and the 53' trailers in the 5300's. All of their trailers observed so far have had roll-up rear doors, regardless of the trailers' make. Most of the trailers also have conspicuity tape (red & white reflectorized tape) along the sides and rear.

Trailer Number	Trailer Make	Paint Scheme/ herald locations
4505		90's
4511	Trailmobile	90's Standard
4515	Trailmobile	90's
4519		90's, three sides
4520		80's, all four sides
4802	Trailmobile	80's, four sides
4804 - 4805	Trailmobile	90's, three sides
4816	Frehauf	HEC, yellow numbers
