DAF 105 Skeletal Trailer (W Carter Haulage) in Green (1:50 scale)
- W. Carter (Haulage) Limited can trace its lineage back to 1929 when the Company transported local produce by horse & cart. Today the Company is owned by Colin & Edward Carter & has established itself as one of the largest container hauliers in the UK.
The Company operates in excess of 600 heavy goods vehicles. W. Carter (Haulage) has named its vehicles since 1964 when the first AEC Mandator Series V in the UK was purchased. To celebrate that purchase, which at that time was a highly sophisticated & advanced vehicle, the vehicle was given the unique name of ‘ Deben Viking’ due to the excavation of Sutton Hoo burial ground 2 miles from their head office where the largest warrior tribe treasure trove in Europe was discovered.
