I have no recall of ever seeing a green Pickford's van. However, this van had, by 1955, lived through the nationalisation and then privatisation of road transport, and that could be BRS green. Just a thought. |

My only green Pickfords inspiration is the rare Matchbox 46b Guy truck variation![[Image: matchboxpickfords46bguy.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/matchboxpickfords46bguy.jpg) but no idea if based on reality or a balls-up |

Could be a 'London Transport' van. |

I passed a Pickford's Scania on my way to Stoke on Trent this morning, the blue seems a bit lighter in shade than it used to be. In the 50s, most of the removal vans were O type Bedfords with a big Luton extension over the cab, bet the Scanias are a bit quicker. |
