Well today is going to be a long day before its over and I will be at home again.
Why? Well as we were about to leave the house this morning my son asked me if I knew a Nigel Watson, ...My ears pricked up, ....I woke up another notch and here was my son holding the box I have been patiently (well sort of) waiting for. Again a well packaged book, it lasted the trip from the UK to NZ but the packaging was destroyed in a sub second to reveal ....The Second Book. Sitting on the front step at home, a quick flick through the pages made me want to ignore that early meeting with our biggest customer and read from cover to cover, then I was brought back to reality with "I'll be late for school", so roll on the end of the day. In the short couple of minutes the book looks every thing we thought it would be. Again Nigel you must be applauded for your work!!! Many Thanks Kev |

These sound like terrific books and I'm passing on Nigel's book website to my wife and father in law as a Christmas present hint
. I notice on the website it mentions Volume Two covers Local Pattern carriers, would this imply Australian and New Zealand-built vehicles? And I guess my second question is a complete long shot, but my main interest is the Australian 1-ton tracked truck GS (for which I am steadily working on 4-view CAD plans), is anything about these prototypes covered? Steve. |

The Aust LP carriers and Tracked Truck are featured, but Mike Cecil's booklet has more comprehensive coverage of the subject. Unfortunately, Mike and Nigel's books repeat the errors on the TT engine numbers originally made in the ARN register book, without trying to explain them.
Steve, would your surname start with "M", perhaps explaining your interest in 1 ton TT's? |
