Oxford Diecast

1:76 Scale

For OO Gauge model railways

Straight from the 1950s, this model of the Carlight 'Continental' Caravan smacks of nostalgia and conjures up happy holidays enjoyed by families in the early post-war era before the days of overseas package holidays. The company was family-owned throughout its existence, commencing in 1932 right through to 2002 and operated from Sleaford in Lincolnshire throughout this period. The concept was started by camping enthusiast and Lincolnshire auctioneer Robert Earl who built a trailer tent for himself and then asked a local wheelwright to build him a lightweight caravan. There was so much interest that he decided to turn to manufacturing. The rest, as they say, is history. The Carlight Continental became known as the Rolls-Royce of caravans and it was boasted that if you had owned one of these, you would never have anything else!


In most instances Oxford Diecast models come in a plastic case, and the model is attached to the packaging base via small screws. These need to be removed in order to release the model. 

Please DO NOT pull the model from the base with out removing the screws.
