Re: Remember these?
I was put in command of something like that when i worked at Wilmslow railway station about 1970, to carry peoples luggage. i lost control of it and drove it off the platform and onto the tracks, trains were held up for an hour or so. That was pretty much the end of my railway career.I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.

Re: Remember these?
The one i used did'nt have a seat, just a big arm like a one armed bandit, you moved it up and down and left/right to move around. This is obviously something similar, a stab in the dark but did ruperts use them to carry their equipment around on excersises, of course the rupert did'nt do the driving, his batman would reverse up to the ruperts trench and unload his, silver service, wine rack etc.Last edited by stephenfrank; 18 November 2012, 03:01.I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.
