Walcha Antique Machinery & Truck Show

Thanks for sharing the pics, they are great.
Walcha n Wauchope Club work together to make a bigger show even better.

Hello Morris,
Know what you mean about travel ,7hours
each way but well worth it.
I had never seen a tilt Tautliner like that
before so was hoping somebody knew about them.
Blanchards use to carry Koppers Utility poles x Grafton,
so might need a Tautliner for return journey.

Hello Cobba,

I have the Phone number for the
David Brown if you need another one.

Once you got one you won't want 2.
lol

Tilting the tautliner enables load to be craned off & on, in this case concrete railway sleepers. One ram each end does the tilt, pretty tidy set up, and when down pin slides in to lock each end.

Hi Mammoth,
Thanks for the reply.
That was my way of thinking as well,
Crane on and off with the big stuff and
the benefits of a Tautliner.
Bit like the advantages of the old
Camel trailers,get paid both ways.
