"Heavy Haulage through the years"

Thanks one and all for the postings of late keeps me occupied on days when the mercury is a little high,one picture of note that I wasn’t aware of is a Scammell Crusader 8 wheeler was this a factory assembly line model ?
I see there has been some rail/ bridge disasters over the years and we to have had some here in West Oz not involving trucks but one of recent time is worth a mention when a 4 loco train of 30000 tons of BHP iron ore was derailed by the company when the train took off with out the driver.Investigation is still under review.

Cheers Dig
