Although three inch scale traction engines are one of the most popular sizes for rallying, implements and accessories for them (or, indeed, for four inch engines) are very rarely modelled.

Superbly built three inch scale wagon, built to authentic design and highly-detailed. Steel spoked wheels with rubber tyres, front wheels on pivoting fore-carriage. Screwdown brake to rear wheel, operated from handwheel at the back. Planked deck and body with hinge-down sides and tailboard, locking pins with catch chains on all hinges. Tool locker underneath. Working steel leaf springs on all wheels.

The load comprises sixteen hand-stitched corn sacks, each printed "Corn & Seed Merchant Oxford". There is a removable riding seat at the front with padded top.

Finished in lined-out black livery.
