ALTHOUGH only showing one piece of trailer equipment on its own stand, Scammell has several trailers and running gears at Earls Court. The unit shown on the Scammell stand is a tandem-axle, non-reactive bogie semi-trailer fitted with stacked rubber suspension; this can also be provided with air
suspension. This trailer chassis was the subject of a recent price decrease of 1100 and, as with the other chassis in the Scammell range of trailers, is obtainable with TIR bodywork.
Scammell trailer units shown on other stands are a Fourtrak with a one-piece, moulded reinforced-plastics insulated body by Mieldeover Transport, on Stand 36; a 3,800gal. stainless steel tank by Thompson Bros. (Bilston) Ltd. on Stand 100; a 3,170-gal. bitumen tank by C. F. Taylor (Industrial) Ltd. on Stand 139, and a double-conical, general-purpose tank by W. P. Butterfield (Engr.) Ltd. on Stand 95.
Other trailers and running gears are shown on the stands of Torridon Steel Ltd. (No. 136) and Bonallack and Sons Ltd. (No. 30). The first of these is a 3,395-gal. fuel oil tanker built in mild steel for Shell-Mex and B.P. Ltd., and this is coupled to a Highwayman Mk. Ill tractive unit. The second is a Weightsaver body on a Fourtrak chassis built to comply with Customs and Excise requirements.
