    This Fageol thing looks more like a road train than a tractor and trailers. I am wondering if it had air brakes. It looks like all of the trucks under the engine as well as the cars were steering.

    Fageol also produced the Cargoliner truck in the 1950s. The front steering was unusual because the whole axle pivoted like a wagon axle would.
