The short-lived range of half-size 1:76-scale Dublo Dinky Toys (announced in late 1957, and introduced in 1958) was designed to work with 00-gauge Hornby Dublo railways, just as the main, larger Dinky Toys range were (mostly) designed to be compatible with the larger gauge 0 Hornby Trains.

Range

Meccano Ltd. didn't produce very many types of Dublo Dinky vehicles, as the small size made them less fun to play with as separate items - their main purpose remained as "set dressing" for Dublo layouts, with people, a limited number of cars (to be parked outside a station or placed near level crossings or trackside roads), and a tractor.

The Bedford flat truck was able to take the same removable container(s) that fitted the Dublo railway wagons.
