The Mickey Mouse Foden ballast tractor.

Evening all, Dave Im sorry that I missed meeting you and the others…still working even in the pouring rain!!!

When I look at that little “Micky Mouse” I can hardly believe that I punched one of those up and down to Sicily in the 60s, and felt that I was “King of the Road”…12 gears and all of 150hp…what could be more desirable■■?

Thanks for the images, hope that you all had a good day.

Cheerio for now.
