Manufacturer description

Only the RAF would want a Queen Mary trailer this long! Our Bedford OX tractor unit is pulling the trailer, which was in effect a semi-trailer designed for the recovery and transport of aircraft. It was extensively used by both the RAF and the Royal Navy Fleet Arm during and after World War II. The flatbed trailer has open metal-worked sides with a front jockey wheel to attach it to the tractor unit. Painted RAF blue even down to the wheel hubs and with white graphics, the model carries the RAF roundel on the front and back wings but no number plate on this occasion, although the RAF numbering RAF 210749 is painted on the cab doors.
