Virgin Trains Loco Refuelling Truck - Mercedes Atego

 

This is a code 3 die cast metal and plastic model finished in Virgin Trains livery and based upon a modern image mobile refuelling tanker.

 

The model has undergone a major Code 3 modification with a scratch built 'tread-plate' refuelling platform added to the rear of the tanker chassis, including a fuel hose reel, re-positioned rear light clusters etc.

 

In addition to the vehicle body modifications, this Virgin tanker model has been fitted with highly authentic Virgin Trains decals including the black & silver chevron design to each of the four corners of the tanker. The chevron design is used by Virgin Trains as part of their livery on the Pendolino and Voyager trains.

 

The base model includes: Detailed interior, side mirrors, highly detailed wheels and realistic head and tail lights, realistic under chassis etc.

 

Scale

The model is 1/80 scale which is as near as possible to the true 1/76 scale for UK model railway layouts. As you can from the pictures we purposely placed the model next to a Hornby Class 47 and a Pendolino to demonstrate that this Mercedes Atego model scales exceptionally well on a layout.

 

This is an exceptional model that will be an excellent addition to any modern day model railway layout to add a mobile refuelling rig in any depot or trackside scenario.

 

 

Modifications

  • Tanker dismantled and re-sprayed to an authentic Virgin Trains silver

  • Heavily modified tanker with tread-plate rear fuelling platform and fuel hose reel fitted

This is a code 3 diecast metal and plastic model finished in a EWS livery.

The 3 axle chassis cab has a scratch built flatbed body fitted to it that has been nicely sprayed with a highly realistic aluminium effect paint finish.

 

The special build flatbed body can be loaded with anything you wish and it will add a really nice visual feature to your modern image layout.

 

Hornby OO scale 20' containers fit very nicely to the bed of the body making this a very realistic truck parked close to any EWS locomotives or rolling stock in your depot or railway sidings or perhaps even on the open road.click here to see the real truck cab dimensions

 

Scale

Although the model is marked as a 1/80 (and sometimes 1/72) scale model it is in my view closer to the 1/76 true OO scale.

 

Based upon the dimensions given on the Scania website this cab is actually is 2430mm so 8.019 feet wide, which if you multiply by 4 (4mm = 1 foot OO scale) that is 32.076 and compared to the actual model cab width which is 31.2mm wide, it is just 0.8mm difference!

 

By clicking on the cab drawing to the right you will be able to see how the above scale calculation works out.

 

 

Specification  

  • EWS (3 Beasts maroon on gold) decals fitted to the cab on either side

  • EWS decal fitted to the rear facing bulkhead of the flatbed body (not shown in the images)

Network Rail - Mercedes Flatbed with PalFinger Crane (Depot/Maintenance) Truck  -  1/80 scale

 

A beauty isn't it? This is a unique Network Rail Flatbed Truck model based upon real trucks used by Network Rail to maintain the UK rail system.Sorry, no large image available of this truck

 

Often PalFinger crane equipment is fitted to these trucks to assist in the loading or loading of heavy materials or equipment, an image of one of these real Network Rail trucks can be seen to the right.

 

 

 

The Model

This is a rare (only 4 ever made) Network Rail Mercedes Actros flatbed truck model that we have built for our serious model railway enthusiast visitors.

 

As with most of our special vehicles, this vehicle has been stripped down to component parts and a scratch built bed fitted.

A fully pos-able PalFinger crane has been fitted which extends, moves up and down and side to side.

An amber roof light bar has been added and numerous other modifications to make this a truly desirable Network Rail truck to own on a model railway layout.

 

Built on a rare 1/80 scale model, this is probably the closest scale rigid chassis truck to the UK model railway 1/76 scale and so offers great realism in the authentic Network Rail livery, especially parked next to the 1/76 scale Mercedes Sprinter Mess vans we sell. (see our vans page here)

 

There you have it, something totally different for a  model railway and would especially look good as a feature in its own right beside the tracks being maintained or at a depot.

 

As mentioned before, this model is based upon a rare 1/80 donor truck chassis cab, which in itself is hard to find but add the cost of the crane and the amount of work that has gone into converting the base model into the vehicle it is today, it has been quite consuming and therefore this model has to be targeted at truly the model railway enthusiast or exhibition layout owner.

 

With the above in mind, the price of this model is £55.95 GBP each (+ £3.60 P&P)

 

 

Only one of the Mercedes Actros - Network Rail Flatbed trucks with a PalFinger Crane model is included, all other scenery, people, track, locomotives, vehicles etc shown in the pictures are NOT included.

 

Supplied in the original card display box

 

This is not a toy.

The posable Hiab / Palfinger style crane folds away at the end of the trailer bed, but when needed un-folds and extends exactly like the real thing does! Un-believable considering it is 1/87click for a higher definition image scale!

You can pose the crane in any position, perhaps lifting loads on or off the back of the trailer bed, at full stretch either side or indeed 360 degrees fully around the vehicle.

 

The Iveco tractor unit detaches from the trailer if required making this model very versatile for different layout scenarios.

 

This model looks superb and very realistic on any modern OO/HO Railway as an eye catching trackside feature in your depot or railway sidings perhaps even on the open road.

Add considerable realism to your modern railway layout with this superb model.

Mercedes Atego Refuelling Truck - EWS Livery with a rear operating platform and hose reel.

 

Finished in the authentic EWS Maroon with a rear operating platform and fuel hose reel (no extending hose)

 

This is a code 3 die cast metal model, modified and finished to a very high standard.

The donor chassis cab trucks alone now are hard to get hold of, but this is your chance to own one. (this is a unique prototype and no others made with no others on the horizon, so if you want it before Christmas, this is your one and only chance).

 

This model is totally unique and looks superb and very realistic on any modern OO/HO Railway as a trackside feature.

 

This type of vehicle would be used by rail operator companies for refuelling operations away from the fuel depots, perhaps in sidings or similar areas. The tanker could also be used to deliver fuel to fuel point depots.

This model was built as a prototype and has many hours invested into it. The initial design (like the real tankers) is based upon an airport operation re-fuelling tanker, allowing the operator access to the rear pumping kit and a large reel to house the extended fuel hose.

 

Modifications

  • The vehicle has been stripped down and the cab and tank re-sprayed in 'Rail Match' EWS Maroon.

  • A detailed operation platform and fuel hose reel added to the rear of the vehicle with the rear light cluster mounted onto that.

  • Modern UK standard chevron boards fitted below the rear light clusters.

  • EWS decals fitted to the tank on either side of the vehicle with further fuel identification board decals fitted to the sides and rear.



  • Authentic UK number plate (GB06 VNN) fitted to front and rear of the vehicle

  • The model is finished with side mirrors, realistic lights front and rear, highly detailed road wheels and rubber like tyres.

This is a unique refuelling truck that will look superb on any modern day model railway layout.

We only have this one prototype model and when it is gone, it is gone!

EWS - Mercedes Actros Articulated Container Truck

This is a 1/87 (HO) scale die cast 'code 3' metal and plastic model with the Tractor Cab unit finished in EWS silver livery.

The model includes: a detailed interior, side mirrors, highly detailed wheels and realistic lights etc.

 

This articulated truck would perhaps be used by EWS for logistic operations and perhaps therefore a common sight at freight loading depots as containers are hauled in to be loaded onto rolling stock.

 

This model is unique and we only have one of these with no plans for others (due to donor vehicle shortage)

The model is very well detailed and it looks superb and very realistic on any modern OO/HO Railway as a depot or trackside feature.

 

The Mercedes chassis cab unit detaches from the trailer, and the trailer has support legs that drop down and make it independent from the chassis cab unit.

 

  • EWS quality decals fitted to the cab doors on either side of the vehicle with a further two EWS decals fitted to front of the cab below windscreen.

 

 

Only the Volvo - EWS  Truck model shown is included, all other scenery, people, track, locomotives, vehicles etc shown in the pictures are NOT included.

 

Supplied in the original plastic display box but will be well packaged before despatch.

 

Modified for model railway trackside use and therefore for a recommended age of 12 or over

 

Please note:

Being a die cast metal model, it is not recommended to be placed onto a track that is or could be electrified as this may short circuit and cause damage to your equipment.

 

Due to the modifications made to this model, the number of small parts and added transfers, and general delicate construction of the code 3 parts, this model is Not recommended as a toy for children. It is purely for use as a scenic feature for a model railway under adult supervision.

EWS Waste/Skip Truck - with detachable skip container


This is a Cararama base model with a code 3 conversion, modified and finished to a very good standard with detailed interior, side mirrors, detailed wheels, windscreen wipers, realistic lights etc that you come to expect from Cararama.

This is an ideal addition to any modern image model railway, parked outside depot offices, operating in the yard or outside on the road it looks great and very realistic as the picture hopefully shows.

These base models are very rare now and I only have one of these models and it is up for auction with no reserve!

As you can see from the picture, the skip/waste container and slide/drag mechanism actually works and is fully pose-able, just like the real thing!

You can have it fully loaded, or being detached and dropped off (as shown) or detach the container completely and leave it in your depot/yard, the options on how you want to display the model is entirely up to you.

Although the model is marked on the packaging as 1/87 scale, the style and detailing make it easily passable in 1/76 (OO) scale for one of the many modern small commercial vehicles available today.


Dimensions (overall when loaded)

Length 104mm
Width 29mm (excluding mirrors)
Height 41mm


Only the one EWS Waste / Skip TMD Truck model (generally in the centre foreground of the image) is included, all other scenery, people, track, locomotives, other vehicles etc shown in the pictures are NOT included.

Supplied in the original OEM box, however it will also be well packaged and protected before it is despatched.

This is not a toy.
