Catalogue listing

Oxford Diecast Scania 143 40ft fridge trailer (William Armstrong) is a 1:76 scale model designed to represent a refrigerated trailer used during the initial privatisation of the UK railway freight sector. The model is supplied by Oxford Diecast and carries the manufacturer part number 76S143005.

The trailer is a replica of a Scania 143 chassis fitted with a 40‑foot insulated body, suitable for carrying perishable goods. It is rendered in a realistic livery associated with the William Armstrong freight operator, and details such as the chassis, wheels and refrigeration unit are faithfully reproduced in die‑cast metal.

This collector’s item is intended for railway enthusiasts and model railway hobbyists who require an accurate representation of a post‑privatisation freight vehicle for use on OO gauge layouts.
