Many years ago the late Rod McPherson had a large photo album that was saved from the dumpster when part of the Maribyrnong defence complex was going through it's death struggles. The album contained black and white photos of all different types of military vehicles including trailers that were being inducted or developed for the Australian forces. It may contain some useful images as they were not just happy snaps but portrait and detail shots.
Rod's son Lex may still have the album or know of its whereabouts. Mike K, you would be the most likely suspect on the forum to have any knowledge of this matter. Over to you. Dave

Recovery Trailer, 6 Wheeled, 8 Ton, Aust. & DT 969A
Dave and Mike,
Many thanks for the info, extra pictures and lead to follow. They are better than the ones I was able to find. Hopefully you may have some more on your CD's - they will be very interesting to see. I dont think Alex is a Member on here, so would someone be able to contact Alex on my behalf or pass on my info to him, or PM me his details if he is okay with that. With Many Thanks, Cheers, Darian.

Recovery Trailer - Video
G'day All,
Found this video on YouTube - Think this is the link (if I have done it right, if not, can somebody please fix it). http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=CLRSKlpBS2k It shows the Cranes 7.5 Ton Trailer and the Dyson 20 Ton Trailer. I found it interesting, just wish there was more of it. Also, a couple more pictures from varying sources (please forgive me if they are anyones on here). Regards, Darian.

Trailer, 6 Wheeled, 8 Ton, Recovery (Aust) Mk 1
Hello All,
Some general overal photos of the Australian Pattern 8 Ton Recovery Trailer that we have picked up that I am chasing information (and parts) for. The last two photos courtesy of Mike K. Have already received a great deal of help and assitance from George M, David (motto), Mike K. and Mike C. More information in Mike K's thread on "trailers" - just trying to link the two threads (mostly for my benefit). This is the link to the trailers thread (again, I hope) - http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=19731 With Thanks, Regards, Darian. Last edited by Darian Carn; 08-02-13 at 03:43.
