Marshall water bowser

I did try a google search , but didn't get that type of cart to come up, I would be interested to know if Marshall made carts like that , or did they leave things like that to other companies .

Marshall's were a general engineering firm and made absolutely allsorts from steam engines to tea machinery to midget submarines. Its unlikely they subbed out for water carts.

If you look at the picture it shows several Marshall features like the wheels and hub caps which were used on their portables.

If you search on google try water cart within images. It comes up with quite a few, although most are modern there are plenty of the type, just not Marshalls. If you complicate the search by adding Marshall into it, it throws it off into another tangent.

This Marshall water cart was on e-bay some time ago. I was quite tempted but we already have a Baker as well as a Reeves.

Whats the approx diameter of the wheels ? I have found some similar looking wheels but they are only 75cm. Wondering if they would make a passable re-production water bowser.
