GS1c was released in November 1961 in time for the Christmas trade. It remained in the range in this form until GS28 arrived in December 1962 with the new Bedford TK tractor unit and a new selection of four cars. A complete and boxed set of this set would be an expensive item to buy.
The models which made up the Transporter Gift Set - GS1c were:
