Default Trailer photos

Interesting selection, the 7 1/2 ton trailer fitted with CMP hubs and modified beam axle mounting.......were these manufactured abroad, based on the Uk pattern 7 1/2 tonner.

The first trailer featured, looks to be based on the Taskers "tilting" trailer.....the second series of photo's featuring the four wheeled version, again are the outside the UK.......I have a few photographs of the "Taskers" trailer, mostly inter war and early war.

You wouldn't happen to have anything on the 5 ton trailer......I only have two photgraphs of it......it has a series of smaller diameter wheels on bogies, and a steerable front axle with two larger wheels......a similar arrangement to the 7 1/2 ton trailer.

George.
