Hi Pete do you think the streamlining will make much difference at about 28 mph flat out ■■?
Cheers, Leyland 600
It would probably help a bit when the driver used “Aberdeen Overdrive”!
We’ve all seen - and visited - roadside snack vans from time to time: where else but Spain would you get a three-day festival devoted to the ■■■■ things??
A small selection of the more interesting ones!

Hi Ade, Great photos of the Joseph Booth steam crane on Gloucester docks. I served my apprenticeship as a patternmaker with Cowans Sheldons & Co, “Cranemakers to the World” of Carlisle in the late 1950s early 60s when steam cranes were still being built but they did change over to diesel. I made dozens of these cast iron nameplate patterns to be affixed to various types of crane after they had been cast. In later life visiting ports, and railway installations in various parts of the UK and the world I have come across some of my handywork or cranes that I had put som input into back then, the latest being 18 months ago on Cape Towns Wictoria & Alfred Waterfront and dry dock where I found 5 dockside luffing cranes which were built during the time of my apprenticeship. I distinctly remember working from the drawings which were labelled “South African Railways, Cape Town Harbour Board.” Joseph Booth of Rodley eventually became part of the Clyde Crane & Booth consortium which Cowans were also members then taken over by NEI industries and like many good old manufacturers disappeared in the conglomorate.
Cheers, Leyland 600.

Here.s another crane shot from the past …Freemantle harbour Western Australia don,t know if they were UK built but could have been ■■?
Hi Backsplice, these cranes look very much like those built in Bath England by Stothert & Pitt, the direct competition to Cowans Sheldon & Co, The distinguishing features are the jib ballance counterweights which an Stotherst, are always square or rectangular whereas Cowan,s are D shapes to a radius of 25 feet. There was three of Cowans at Greymouth, South Island NZ until fairly recently NZ Railways being large customers with orders for dockside and railway breakdown cranes. This Freemantle image is interesting thanks for posting.
