Promotional Model

Eddie Stobart fans will be pleased with this model to adorn their shelves this time. This is the Volvo Curtainside. A nice model, but a little spoilt in the case of our review sample by poor marking of the black band under the cab screen. Not bad, and that livery ensures collectability! Shop here

In 1933, steam was still the best way to move a heavy load. Cargoes too big for the railway loading gauge were often moved by steam tractors. Corgi has modelled a cylinder made in Bury and destined for the St Annes Board Mill Co of Bristol - a long journey.

The pickfords-liveried tractor and trailer are smart in the familiar blue livery. Details such as the steering chains and driving wheel are well done.

The load itself is a big thing. We're not totally convinced that the tarpaulin effect works, but it's a most interesting and quite detailed resin item which has been carefully painted.--Model Collector Buy it now

Pickfords was founded in the 17th century as a road construction haulier, moving rocks for the repair of turnpikes and other roads. In the 19th century, it operated wagons on other companies railways, but this was contentious, and eventually this service was eliminated. In the 20th century it entered the freight industry using motorised trucks. The company was taken over by the railways in 1934, and nationalised in 1947. It was sold to employees in 1982 and became part of Sirva in 2002. Our Minor is liveried up in the very recognisable blue and white colours. Buy it now
