Notes: This model is also known as 'The Camp Coffee Lorry'.
Production run of 1000 NOT completed due to billboards no longer available, thus difficult and expensive to obtain.
Tangley Models and Trainline Models bought the designs of the original Creak models after Eric Creak stopped producing the Alternative Collection. These models, although Creaks models, have no numbers underneath on the baseplates but are numbered on the box - These models are just as desirable in their own right.

This model is packaged in either a maroon J-type window box or a straw-style window box.
