The Story
Our N-scale version of the AEC Matador in the livery of the London Brick Company is an exact replica of the 1:76 scale model which already features in the Oxford range. Registered ENM 905, our little wrecker was one of two purchased for use as breakdown vehicles but were also used as heavy haulage units when coupled to low loader trailer for moving plant. The bright red body with red tow hook and satin black masking on the canopy, mudguards and radiator grille also features realistic brown planking on the floor of the trailers. The white lettering boasts the company as being 'The Largest Brick Makers in the World' - which it probably was at that time.
