Here's one for all you grizzly truckers...

Very nice Pat. I bought 2 truck models a while back and it has kick started a new interest for me.

 

Rich,

Did the Scania LBT 141 (1976 to 1981) and / or Scania 110 (1968 to 1974) operate in Ireland?

I haven't seen references to either here on the forum.

IXO and Altaya both do the LBT 141 in 1:43, and Oxford do the 110 in 1:76.

In answering my own question, I've found one that is clearly Irish, a red one for sale in Ireland, and an orange one that looks like something CIE would have used.

Photos are not mine, they turned up under a DDG search.

FYI, my brother drives trucks, and he told me that Scania drivers are called 'Tangs'.

He doesn't know of any Tangy LBT 141's or flat-face cab-over 110's that were in use back in the day, by any chance?

[skinner75]

No, sorry. He's only 45, so wouldn't know any of the vintage stuff.

He is driving concrete trucks - all Volvos in the company he works with
