Manufacturer description

Smiths Heavy Haulage is a division of Smiths Mechanical Services based in Bridgend in South Wales, conveniently placed on the M4 Corridor. Created by the company's Simon Griffiths, who saw an opportunity to expand the firm's low loader transport availability, the heavy haulage arm has really taken off and no job is beyond them, with the capability for transporting gargantuan loads across the UK and beyond, with their predominantly Scania fleet being utilised to best advantage.

The 1:76 scale Oxford model of their Scania Topline Low Loader is registered CN66 DKK, representing the real truck which features in glorious technicolour promoting their capabilities on their website, where it has an extraordinary load on board. The detail is all in the tractor unit and the Smiths eye-catching red, black and white corporate colour scheme is caught admirably. With a black interior, additional external extras include six rectangular roof mounted spotlights above the windscreen as well as two chrome roof mounted air horns - just in case you did not see it coming up behind you! The long low loader is decorated in red and orange including a red flatbed section. The result is a very imposing model in the livery of a company undoubtedly destined for great things in the haulage world.
