76MH013 - Mackeson Mechanical Horse Van VEHICLE REG KGX 27 Brewery vehicle collectors can add another fine vehicle to their fleet this month, in the lip-smacking Mackeson's Milk Stout livery, the 3-wheel Mechanical Horse pulling a tank trailer for this famous brewer. Making a tasty diversion from the equally sought after railway related liveries – although it would sit very nicely on your 00 gauge railway layout, outside your scenic public house! The Mechanical Horse was the first vehicle of its kind, designed by Oliver North and manufactured by Scammell back in 1934. It was so named, as its purpose was to replace horses in rail, postal and delivery circles. It was so manoeuvrable, it could be steered through 360 degrees and lasted until well into the 1940s, when Scammell replaced the Mechanical Horse with the famous Scarab. THIS MODEL IS NEW BOXED IN MINT CONDITION.
