Hi John,

 

Found these pictures on Flickr, unfortunately not side on.

A report on the trial details a 20ft container, only one used apparently.

Hi Simon thanks for your help and thanks for taking the time to help me with this project I had read the report some time ago but I have a photo with the two containers loaded on the first day of running. So I thought it must have been the first day only. How ever it my appear that it was loaded more regular than i first thought. Thanks again John

Many thanks swifty this shows the containers loaded again. Thanks for taking the time to help me I had seen the old tread on this but I could not find it on here. I found it though google. I will have to build the containers a little on the blind side as i can not find a pic of them sideways on I'll let you no when it's finished and I'll do a vid of it and put it on my utube channel (trainsmad12) thanks again John.
