| Four-Wheel-Steer: |
|
|
Hamilton Four-Wheel-Steer Trailers feature identical fifth-wheel-mounted axles at both ends connected by a steering rod. As the diagram indicates, turning the towing tongue causes the rear wheels to follow the front wheels through a nearly identical path... permitting use of more trailers and/or narrower intersecting aisles than either caster-steer or ordinary fifth-wheel-steer trailers.

Reversible Towing Tongue |
|
| |
A popular option on the four-wheel-steer trailer is a reversible towing tongue. Hounds at both ends of the trailer are fitted with quick-release pins that permit moving the towing tongue from one end to the other. This permits reversing direction of the trailer or train with no turn-around space. Note that if multiple reversible fourwheel- steer trailers are to be towed in train, they must be equipped with pintle hitches at both ends. |
