Scania 113/143 Fridge (Thomas Gibb) Review this store Vehicles Corgi Scania 113/143 Fridge (Thomas Gibb) in Blue and Red (1:50 scale) - This legendary haulage company started in the 1890s with a horse and cart to transport freshly caught herring from the Fraserburgh harbour in the North East of Scotland. When motorised transport became the norm, fish continued to be a major part of their work.
Over their long history, Gibbs operated a wide variety of vehicles from Bedfords and Albions to AECs and Leylands. When they began to specialise in temperature-controlled transport, they favoured Atkinson rigids and then artics. Later ERF’s became the dominant marque before DAF made their presence felt, initially with the 2800 and 3300 models and then with their 95 range.
In the 1990s, a number of Scania 113 Streamlines were operated, one of which was N695 USO with the fleet name ‘Spirit of Scotland’. £49.99 + Add to my saved list
