Re: M6A Pickfords 200 ton Transporter
There is also a crossover trailer consisting of a red bed with dark blue bogies. The very few examples I have seen have all had a dark blue tractor unit as well. Photographs included in this thread.
Re: M6A Pickfords 200 ton Transporter
The Ruston-Bucyrus fits on the trailer so well. I must wonder if that was by design?

Re: M6A Pickfords 200 ton Transporter
there was a USA Ebay seller who had one with the very rare E box (damaged) but although I made many bids, seller didn't reply.
He had his settings without any possibilities about sending him a message.
Seems there are still Ebay sellers out there who don't want to sell ...

He probably didn't want to sell as he refused to answer my questions and reply on my bids.
