Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

has so far failed and find the remains of an Atkinson steamwagon. They were built in Preston by the first Atkinson and Co., and later, after an amalgamation, by Atkinson Walker Waggons Ltd. As about 500 were built, I feel that one must still be in existence.

Could you help by letting me have details of Atkinson steamers, or spare parts for them, advertised in Commercial Motor after about 1935? I know this is a lot to ask, but I feel it is one line of approach that might bear fruit.

I note with interest that three Atkinson steamers operated by the Cement Marketing Company won first prize in a Concours held by CM in the early Twenties.

AOur classified advertisement pages prewar did not separate different makes, and consequently the research entailed is quite beyond our capabilities.

We can only suggest that, if you wish to pursue this line of research and are able to visit these offices, we may be able to make facilities available on a necessarily limited scale You could also approach the British Light Steam Power Society, whose secretary is Mr. A Smith, 18 Rodney Road. Saltford, near Bristol.
