    The ASC manual for 1909 shows only the D shape type and lists them as mk's 11 and 11B ,I have scourced some constuctional drawings which unseen as yet relate to a mk 1v Im hoping this will turnout to be ! sadly as yet no makers name but it may come to light when i remove any rust from the axle, Thanks for the pictures

    Yes there was daft bidding on it, never understand bidding things up i always set my top price for something and wack it on in the the last seconds , if i get it great if not and i was more than i was up for paying then my loss .... did it on a glengarry badge once £300 in the last few seconds got it for £28 :laugh: another time there was a button at £67 bid £150 in dying seconds it sold for over £300:shocked: nothing as queer as folk i guess !

    Thank you kindly, i was invited to the service to stand in the larch gate, but i delined as my part was stripping it down replacing both sides,tailgate,lockerbox,footboard and some of the crossbars,and refinishing what was left, it was fitted with new wheels and then collected by a colonel ,a major and a corpral of the RLC, I am however very proud to have had my hand in the the service somehow, i have recently purchased another Gs wagon so this will be my 4th one ,its in very bad order but i'll get there after its had a few dozen coats of looking at ! kind regards Nigel
