It is an Albion but I don't know the model - maybe a Reiver?? I think with Albions it depends on the wheel configuration which we can't see here. The same cab was used by Leyland and Dodge.

Stobart livery and looks like a tipper; plate is MAO 920F, issued in Cumberland August 67. No trace found for Stobart using Reivers or anything specific about Albions in the 60s.

Here's a model of one perhaps: http://images.denhams.com.s3.amazonaws.com/463/463lot238.jpg

Dudley's model link is Corgi #23602, described by Corgi as "Albion (LAD) 8 wheel platform and sheeted load" - no model name given; released in 2000. Eventually found a couple of photos online - an old ebay sale - and the model had no registration plates, but a slightly more ornate (newer?) Stobart livery.

This cab could be -
4 wheel Chieftain
4 wheel Clydesdale-slightly heavier
6 wheel Reiver
8 wheel Cameronian ?

Easiest to assume the Corgi model is indicative of the early Eddie Stobart trucks so Reiver.

From September 1961 it became the 'Super Reiver' [RE29].

The 8 wheel Cameronian was almost 100% export (Australia?) with only about four (due to a cancelled order) in the UK.

In 1967 the company consisted of three main parts: fertilizer, haulage and farm shop with probably less than eight trucks. It became Eddie Stobart Ltd in about 1970.

It has an Albion badge so calling it a Leyland would be an insult I think!
