Paul_C Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 I am looking for any photos of Laing construction vehicles and cranes from the late 50's/early 60's era. I am having a model crane built and want to determine the colouring and logos/signage. Any suggestions would be very helpful, thanks. Paul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searching on You Tube for John Laing should bring up some relevant videos. Andrew 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul_C Posted June 1, 2023 Author Share Posted June 1, 2023 Well I'm pleased to say that things have steadily moved on and my model is now well on the way to being built. I found some good photos on the John Laing site showing the colourings required. The model is being adapted somewhat to make it more like those seen around the late 1950's/60's. Once printed and painted I'm sure that it will blend in with the layout. Paul. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
