Not a great picture, but was difficult to get a decent shot (for me, anyway) but this gives a flavour.
The Saunders tractor on the front (The Tiger) was uncoupled shortly after this shot was taken. I hope your friend is ok.

Whos was the third from the front, with the white canvas. Was it 'Onward'?

YYS4BOB 6th September 2009 11:00 AM

Yes, The Tiger, Mr Blower, Onward, & Lord Doverdale.

It was I who 'fell off', currently lying in Salisbury hospital awaiting surgery. Just to prevent any rumours or confusion, we had stopped by the commentary box and I simply slipped off the bottom step whilst dis-mounting. My advise is to take extra care when wearing muddy boots on metal steps!
