But Thankyou for getting in touch.
Now I'm holding a candle to the Devil a bit here, but the photograph of the waggon when in the scrap yard shows a steering box, so where did that go? As the Fowler had a very traction engine like steering wheel I'm wondering if the steering was to low geared for anything other than gulley emptying, so if I were you I'd have a good look at the drawings and see if things can be improved before making anything, maybe the thread is single start, and a double start could be made instead.
