And you thought Ward La France only made fire engines? Dizzy-t has sent me this military marvel and says: "It's the front end of the Ward La France wrecker, in the Jersey Motor Museum. Its well worth a visit for any one interested in old cars, trucks, steam rollers infact anything mechanical, re the steam train, it's just a trip around the grounds twice. Regards Dizzy-t Now click tnrough here for a shot of the business end of the wrecker...

But what's that next to it? meanwhile Dizzy asks: "Can your Aussie correspondent get any photos of 'Big Bertha' which is the Diamond T and was the first Aussie road train, run by Kurt Johannsen, it's in Alice Springs Motor Museum." Well unless I've got it wrong that appeared on the recent posting from the National Road Transport Musuem right at the very end...?
