How long before some wise guy says that
actually the 90 was towing Tornado!
Reminds me of one of the few stories my father told about his time in the REME (Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers or as dad always referred to it Rough Engineering Made Easy) 1944-46.
One day his team were called out to lorry which had failed.
When they reached it they found the brakes had gone.
There was nothing that could be done on site so they
decided to assist it back to the depot.
So that they could hold it back on downhill sections,
they attached their breakdown truck to the rear of the lorry
with a push pole.
This meant they arrived back at the depot with the supposed failed lorry apparently towing the breakdown truck. This story soon circulated around the depot; they let it run for a few days, then explained why they had done what they did. The boot was then on the other foot.
