Intermodal Trailer Drawings-A Great Concentraion Builder

Intermodal cars such as this Illinois Central Gulf piggyback trailer are a great place to practice and a great concentration builder.  Most piggyback trailers have colorful logos on a light colored trailer.  This allows you to focus on striping and lettering.
Lettering on a light background is a good place to start when you are practicing lettering.  This style of lettering is a little more forgiving if you make a minor mistake.
In the case of the Illinois Central Gulf piggyback logo and the Illinois Central Gulf lettering, it is important to keep the edges crisp.  When building your concentration, however, it is a relief not to have to paint around these letters and the logo once trimmed.
Your finished trailers will be very impressive.  Intermodal trailers truly are a key part of what moves America's trains.  Many railfans will recognize your piggyback trailers both past and present.  Enjoy drawing trains.
