Hi Tony,
It was not in the issue which had Brian's article, but the previous one:
http://corowaswim-in.org/docs/Corowa...May%202013.pdf on page 23.
I gathered info on the vehicles and trailers. They were all supplied on the same Canadian S/M contract number, both to Australia and UK. I think the late David Hayward brought the subject up on here some years ago. There is one of the FWD HAR trucks in preservation in the UK, I wonder if any have survived in Australia?

As Brian says, the Chev would not have been a heavy enough towing vehicle for the trailers, I have seen the photo before, but as it looks like a storage area, it may not be significant.

regards, Richard
