Due to the tooling restrictions the Stobart 40th Anniversary Set will now contain an Atkinson
Borderer in place of the Seddon Atkinson Strato. The Seddon Atkinson Strato model will now
appear at a later date in the Corgi October-March Catalogue 2010/11, livery and information will be
announced nearer the time.

The set will now comprise of;
Atkinson Borderer (Modified Tooling – see info below)
Scania 111 (New Tooling)
Scania 113
Volvo FH (Facelift Cab – New Tooling for 2010)

Atkinson Borderer (Modified Tooling)
This model will see the first ever release of the Atkinson Borderer with Sleeper ‘Pigeon Box’. The
Sleeper compartments were added to the truck at a later date which meant the vehicle could be
used on long haul trips, offering the driver somewhere to sleep and we hope you agree that this has
maintained the desirability of this outstanding anniversary set.

I'm not into the trucks actually. But, I got one for cargo and container van shipment. It's really old. I'm planning to buy one but still considering the risk of investment. Anyway, my contract with WG&A is about to end. The atkinson frontier is never seen before.
