I would like to know for my Effingham RR layout.....
I had the same question when I got mine. The US and Canadian board members convinced me that they would fit fine and that they are popular in the US and Canada too.

ebay Australia offers them too. May be that is an easier choice. The Australian seller states they have been originally made by "Herpa" a German company.

Trident has also some small trucks very useful for delivery. I got some of this one on my layout too:

You may try to find them local. Looks like 90113 is the Trident parts number.
This one is also useful as an even smaller delivery truck

Looks like 90154 is again the Trident parts number.
