C&D - more AEC-Y-Type-versions (1-148)

Collect and Delivery service, add-on to my AEC’s Y-type lorries.

The Y-type lorry was built from 1915 until 1922 by AEC. Originally equipped with a Daimler engine and sold exclusively marked under the Daimler Brand, this was changed during WW1. Somewhat 10.000 trucks were built so it was one of the most common types used by British army during the war. Also, US Army used this type in France:

After the war many of the surplus ones were sold by British war office to private owners and especially to railway companies. Practically all British railways of that time used this lorry in different services, including for collect and delivery serves from and to their fright depots.

Here you can download some more versions of this lorry:
1. An ExWar-version, that is quite close to the one used and later sold by war office
2. Early version with or without larger headlights in front, all modelled mostly based on pictures of lorries in service of the Great Western Railway (GWR)
3. Later Parcel Express service version, modelled after one used by London Midland Scottish railway (LMS).
4. Later LMS-truck version with awning

The last one needs parts (chassis/cabs) from the container transport version already published here:

Historically it would be ok to use these models for any other railway, as these trucks were easily rebuilt be their owners as per their needs. Considering the large number of trucks build and shipped to continental Europe, it would also be plausible that the type was in used in France or other countries after the war.

Being originally sold as a Daimler truck it might be even possible that it was used in Germany or other European countries with rule on the left side, although there is no evidence for that. Anyhow, I took the opportunity to create a Daimler version for railroad-modellers, who live in countries, were peoples drive on the right side of the road. ;-)

For a complete truck you need:

1x chassis
1x cab
1x platform or body, optional awning (open or closed)
1x wheel aft (early or late)
1x wheel fore (turning left, turning right or straight)
1x driver figure (optional)

Wheels and driver, as well as platforms are already published here (I don't like to double them):

Parcel express body and chassis are required to go together, others may be mixed up.
For the Daimler-version the Daimler chassis should be used instead of the AEC-one.
