A 5 inch gauge "United Dairies" tanker wagon by Scaleway Signals. I remember the first time I saw one of these on their stand many years ago at the London Model Engineering Exhibition, I was completely bowled over by the finish and detailing - a carefully observed and beautifully made model.

In as-new condition, this one appears to have had little, if any use. It certainly wouldn't get any if it stayed here - far too nice to use, it would take price of place on the bookshelf!
