A Waddington & Co Dartford-Farningham sewer contract

Does anyone have any photos of this contract from the early 1970's?

A narrow gauge railway of approx 1 1/2 miles long was used to transport materials due to access restrictions.

Wickham-Poole system

Does anyone have any information on the Wickham-Poole trailer system. I have got a bot of info off google and Flickr, but I believe brochures were published on the system and various trailers available. Would anyone have such information?

Thanks

Auto-mower winch tractors

Does anyone know anything about or have any sales literature, etc for the Auto-mower winch tractor conversions done on Fordson and Ford tractors. According to wikipedia "The Fordson Major was the F.M.F.8 and the Ford 5000 was the AT 5"

Re: Ransomes ITW Shunter

What publication are the pics of the ITW shunting wagons from?
