You must be a glutton for punishment . Do you really want to be jacking up trailers and rolling axles about ?

There are such things as "Hydraulics" you know....

Well , I thought the man said ' Classic ' , which I would reckon to be an old Scammell four in line , with a pair of jacks and a load of packing and some sleepers , and something with a Gardner on the front .

Have to confess I read the same as Bob, and having moved a DX with Peter Wood's Scammell and trailer just the once, I shuddered and thought I would sooner have an easy life!

The whole idea of rolling a knock out axle does not appeal to me either!

It's nice to see engines on "period" transport, but that's fine if someone else is doing it!! ;)

Nicer to see them on the road mind!!

It is not the rolling the wheels about which is the back breaker , it is the jacking and packing , especially when that is whole sleepers , and it is wet and muddy .
