These hard working highway service and construction truck models by Hanns Widl were on display at the 2013 Fulda Meet. The blue truck on the left is an Austrian ÖAF Tornado (now MAN Truck Company). This size dump trucks were very often seen in Austria. It is an resin model  with parts from other manufacturers (Preiser, Wiking, etc.) and  you can see the hard working look. It is completed  with an three axle tipping (dump) trailer built with parts from Kibri. The prototype trailer is from the well known Austrian manufacturer SCWARZMÜLLER.

The orange Winter Service Truck (snowplow/spreader) on the right is a Czech Tatra T148 with three axle all wheel drive. Equipped with a container for road salt, a big snow plow, and a salt spreader. A variety of small parts, such as headlights, yellow warning lights complete the truck. The model was assembled from various resin kits of Czech manufacture.
