The oldest picture I found about the history of NICOLAS …. wood wheels manufacture then build … planes before the second war …. and heavy trailers at the beginning of 1950’s … the old truck is a LATIL

Thats a cracking pic “combi89”.

Out of intrest would you have any photos of ERF Europeans that operated in France on heavy haulage ?

We know P.Brame,Cauvas and Loste all operated them.I believe that Loste were bought by Stsi.

I agree DIG, novel but effective.
This one from Fairymead, Bundaberg, Queensland. In the early 1900s I had 2 uncles(£10 poms) who settled near Mackay and cutting into the bush to develop sugar cane farms, one of them inventing a cane cutting machine the start Crichton Industries of Bundaberg which later by way of takeover became Massey-Ferguson Cane Equipment.

The sugar cane industry is huge Oily they have their own network of rail engines and rail cars which i understand are capable of hauling 1000ton loads and Bundaberg is the home of the rum distillery so your relations were pioneers in that industry.
There is a tv program about the operation of growing cutting hauling and processing the cane Discovery channel I think a very interesting show.

The front of that train is only just missing the ground and a very narrow guage Dig. Nice pic chap.

The network can be seen on Google Earth and Streetview, North-East from Bundaberg, and looks quite extensive; i’d say it’s 2-foot gauge.
