Sunbar ◊ 2020-09-02 21:18	1935 Albion 126 1935 HL126 3½-4 Ton or 1936 KL126 5-5½ Ton, later model possibly to survive to 1951. Cannot determine what it's carrying or if it has a special purpose body, looks like livestock perhaps but in an open body? -- Last edit: 2020-09-02 21:28:15

The PO conservatively rate their tonnage so their crane vehicle as a whole is more like 5 Ton and have the KL126 double rears. https://www.britishtelephones.com/vehicles/cranes/004.htm -- Last edit: 2020-09-02 22:15:55
