Amongst this set of photos there is a 3” scale Foden steam wagon. It is the green one with “A. J. Whirledge, Steam Haulage, Derby” sign written on the sides. Does anyone here on TT know the gentleman who built and rallies it? If I remember correctly, his name is A. J. Whirledge and he lives in the Derby area. I was talking to him at the Statfold “Do” and he told me of several improvements that although fairly minor, make the model much more usable. The particular mod I’m interested in is how he improved the pump. I would really like to send him an email; can anyone put me in touch? I am happy to give my email address in a PM if anyone can forward it or perhaps someone could ask if they can forward his email address to me... Whichever way, any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in anticipation.
Michael
