Draco TSN – third semi-trailer series in the register: from the TSN 230 to the TSN 342, unladen weight 7.4 to 12.4 t, gross weight up to 42 t
As Draco's third series in the register, TSN gathers semi-trailers from the TSN 230 to the TSN 342 as well as a lower-case variant, tsn 339. The designations come from Dutch vehicle registration data (RDW) and follow a three-digit numbering without an explained meaning. Like the other Draco series, TSN too targeted Dutch and Belgian hauliers in the heavy segment rather than specialist heavy-transport operators.

The register lists here 6 versions with unladen weights from 7,400 to 12,440 kg, gross weights from 30,000 to 42,000 kg, a length of 10,050 mm and a width of 2,600 mm.
With gross weights up to 42 tonnes, the TSN trailers belong to the heavy segment of semi-trailer haulage and, like the other Draco series, were built for Dutch and central European construction and steel transport. Competing with larger suppliers such as Nooteboom or Faymonville, Draco overall remained a smaller, regional manufacturer; used TSN trailers are therefore found mainly in Dutch and Belgian construction haulage.
Checks when buying used include the frame and cross members for cracks, the condition of axles, brakes and suspension, the kingpin and landing legs, and the lighting system; with all models sharing the same width, checking axle load and gross weight on the individual data plate matters in particular. It is also worth comparing the axle load figures on the data plate against the current registration, as later axle conversions occur in this class.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
