This is the Seddon Atkinson Strato with the 40' Brian Harris Flatbed. It is excellently cast in 1/50 Scale by Corgi, item number CC15405.

Hauliers of Renown is the flagship of Corgi’s road transport range of die-cast models - amazingly detailed, each model is a tabletop replica of a truck from the UK's most famous haulage fleets.

It is made of well detailed diecast metal with a few plastic parts.

It features authentic paint and detailing, particularly on the cab.

The interior of the cab is also well detailed.

The rear of the tractor is just as well made as the front. Especially the the air hoses, smoke stack and fifth wheel.

The trailer also sports authentic paint and detailing. Just look at the wooden-like slats and the logos on the side.

It also feature working suspension.

Here you can see the metal chain load that is included. There are also wood like blocks to place on either side to hold the chain in place.

The undercarriage and chassis of both models is well detailed and made mostly of diecast metal. 

 Both models also feature moving wheels with rubber-like tires, realistic tread and well detailed hubs.

The cab even has a spare underneath.

This excellent and unique model comes with a numbered, collectable card with information on the truck and trucking company featured.

Your store won't be complete without this great truck!
