Dapol Farrah’s Original Harrogate Toffee Vent Van with free metal toffee tin is a highly limited model produced for the Rails of Sheffield range. It carries the manufacturer part number 4F‑FARRAHS‑23 and is sold exclusively through the Rails of Sheffield collectors’ club.
The set includes a detailed replica of Farrah’s Vent Van together with a 100 g toffee tin, mirroring the original packaging used by the confectionery company. The model is marketed as a limited‑edition item and is intended for railway and memorabilia collectors.
Farrah’s was founded in 1840 by John Farrah in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. The company’s famous Original Harrogate Toffee is still produced in traditional copper pans and packed in embossed tins that are collectable worldwide. Further historical information is available on the Farrah’s website.
