Herpa - 066860 - Tractor Trailer, Scania R TL - Planzer - 6

Specific Item Information: Before Max Planzer switched from "traditional" horsepower to horsepower in 1930 and became self-employed, he drove milk from house to house in Dietikon with his brother's team. The company was founded in 1936, which is now over 85 years ago. The company now employs over 5,600 people and maintains over 2,000 vehicles, which generate annual sales of more than 1 billion Swiss francs. Reason enough to include another model from Planzer (here on a scale of 1:160) among the new products. The small N model is printed prototypically and appears in a limited edition.
