Well done Larry, the David Brown tractors survived long after the war i came across countless numbers of them during my 37 years in plant being used and parked up in all sorts of places. Its amazing how few are in presevation but i suppose they hold no glamour status. Well into the 1970s two were still held at ferryfield airport at Lydd in Kent i can remember during the 1950/60 period when planes not rumours flew from the airport at least four of them towing the old Bristol freighters around. To compliment your photo heres one bombing up a Hurricane

2 some bomb trailers
