0 Lauren Child Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 When I was looking for my trucks, the RLC museum put me onto a group called FMW who managed to trace the contract cards. I don't have the contact details to hand, but I'm sure someone on here will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
