Internal use only
Unless you visit the depot you won't see these Quicksilver support vehicles as they are all confined to the depot complex and never venture out onto the public highway. The Fordson tractor yard shunter should be familiar as it has been pictured here a couple of times already. The skid-steer loader is a weathered and detailed Matchbox toy and the sweeper is a Wiking HO scale model. The forklift, a vital piece of equipment for performing engine changes, is from B-T Models/Base Toys, and the little electric truck is a plastic moulding by a company called J&LR Ltd that I picked up cheaply at a model railway show; it was perhaps not my best buy though as the plastic has gone brittle and I've already had to repair it a couple of times! It is delivering a safe that will eventually be installed in the traffic office upstairs.
