The tractor unit and detachable back was a replacement for horse-drawn vehicles and Scammell Lorries Ltd so liked the idea they purchased the 3-wheeled design and following some refinements, this strong and sturdy vehicle became the favoured transport for pulling loads of  several tons.  A firm favourite with railway companies because of its manoeuvrability, it was a familiar sight in railway yards in particular, including LNER.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere we see it as one of their Express Parcel Service vans, decorated in a rich dark blue with black chassis and roof and the model features a red band along the skirt of the trailer. The interesting artwork on the trailer is a scene from the Lanark Steel Works. The 1930s vintage vehicle is registered EGT 886.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford Diecast","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57518839398773,"sku":"120MH004","price":10.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/5932\/9844\/files\/120MH004_1370x736_jpg.webp?v=1787496843","url":"https:\/\/malcsmodels.co.uk\/products\/scammell-mechanical-horse-van-trailer-lner-1-120-tt-scale","provider":"Malcs Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
