Default Eagle Trailer

Steel Traction wagon by Eagle Engineering of Warwick.







Circa 1910. Works No 5.

15foot long 6foot 8 wide over the steelwork.

All the hard work done.

Blasted and primed.

25% of steelwork around the turntable replaced complete with new bolts and flitch plates as required.

King pin bosses bored with new pin.

Overhauled sprung drawbar (original Eagle fitment). All holes bored and new pins etc.

4 No brand new, made to measure springs.

All spring pins made new, drilled for grease lubrication and with a grease nipple. No play anywhere!.

Braked rear axle - just needs the linkage making.

New rear wheel bearings.

I've got a similar sized restored trailer by Carrimore, I simply do not need two trailers of this size.

Located on the Shropshire/Staffs Border. M6 J15 15mins
