Hemi; 28' pups - not quite yet........ The Campbell '66' Express company was based in Springfield, MO. The Company served routes on Route '66' as well as most areas of the country and some trailers even made their way into Canada. CE had a terminal in the Southeast in Atlanta. Each Camel logo was hand painted, so there were slight differences in the camel art. S&R Models will replicate those differences on each vehicle. Several different models are scheduled. Next up will be Atlas 40' trailers (2 different schemes). This is an officially licensed product. We are working with the Trademark holder to obtain correct information as we re-create the art and varriances. Campbell '66' Express closed down in the mid '80's.

Wow! I didn't know they were hand painted! Thanks for the info. I may pick up a couple for my Rio Grande Railblazer...
