MAN TGA Feldbinder (John Mitchell Grangemouth) in Red and Silver (1:50 scale by Corgi CC13430)
This diecast model MAN TGA Feldbinder (John Mitchell Grangemouth) is Red and Silver and features working wheels.
John Mitchell started the business in 1956 with one vehicle operating from Grangemouth in central Scotland. The business expanded over the years and in 1973, moved to a purpose built, 3 acre, haulage depot with new offices, workshop and storage facilities at Earls Road in Grangemouth.
Continued growth saw the acquisition of an additional site in Grangemouth in 1990; this is the Thornbridge Depot – a 26-acre site with 150,000 sq ft of covered warehousing and storage capacity for over one thousand freight containers. The haulage fleet also expanded over the years and now stands at around 100 vehicles.
The haulage operation is still based at Earls Road and a further seven acres of adjacent land was purchased recently for container storage. The Company is still family owned and managed by Iain Mitchell – Managing Director, and his sister Catherine Weir – Company Secretary.
1:50 scale (approx. 27cm / 10.6in long) - made by Corgi.
