Corgi Volvo F12 40' Flatbed and Load - H E Payne - Bedfordshire

Now into its sixty-eighth year of trading and with three generations of family ownership, H E Payne Transport Ltd has developed an extensive fleet of vehicles specialising in transporting goods from ambient, chilled and frozen temperature ranges. Harry Edward Payne was first introduced to fresh produce transportation during the wartime years when he began replacing local farmers’ previous hauliers.

After his death in 1948, his wife Edna and mother Violet kept the business going until 1958. In its growing years, Payne’s bought its vehicles from various sources.   David Payne, managing director and son of Harry Payne, recalls at one time having six vehicles, all painted different colours.  Generally the livery was mid Brunswick Green with a black chassis and mudguards with gold paint lettering although in recent years the chassis colour has change to red.

Payne’s first Volvo was an F86 6x2 rigid and made a strong first impression.  Today H E Payne operates from their five acre site at Wyboston next to the house where Harry Payne started his business. Many years since the company began, it still provides strong employment for two later generations of his family.

This limited edition feature includes new tooling.
