Oxford Diecast 1/76 Scania R420 Curtainside Pollock Scotrans Ltd Lorry Model (SCA02CS)
It was in 1935 that George (WGD) Pollock started his local cartage business in Corstorphine
just to the west of the city of Edinburgh. The business grew steadily until 1949 when road
transport was nationalised. As a consequence the fleet became part of British Road Services
and George was appointed Group Manager for East Lothian and the Borders. In 1954, when
partial de-nationalisation occurred, George took the opportunity to buy some vehicles and
licences, and opened for business again, now in Musselburgh, and the famous turquoise, gold
and red livery was born. As the fleet continued to grow and the business expanded George's
two sons Ian (now Chairman) and George joined the family business. In 1963 Ian came up with
the idea of individually naming vehicles and combining a Scottish tartan, the tradition
continues to this day.
