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.

Due to the modifications made to this model, the number of small parts, 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 Fuel Truck - Mercedes Actros with a Realistic Roof Light Bar

Mercedes Actros Refuelling Truck - EWS Livery with a Realistic Roof Light Bar.

Finished in a EWS silver and red livery this is a must have for any EWS model railway depot.

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. (we have only a few with no others on the horizon, so if you want it, this is your only chance).

This model is unique and as you can see in the images it looks superb and very realistic on a modern OO/HO Railway as a trackside feature.

This type of vehicle is used by EWS for supply and 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 as the decals are made to the realistic size and colour.

Modifications

• The vehicle has been stripped right down, and prepared for a 'code 3' conversion
  

• The tank bowser has been re-sprayed in silver.
  

• Realistic amber roof light bar fitted to the cab roof.
  
  

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

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

• EWS logo fitted to both of the cab doors and on the panel above the front grill.
  

• 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 and the base models are becoming very hard to find.

Only the Mercedes Actros - EWS Tanker model shown 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.

For a recommended age of 16 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 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.
