Foden Special Vechicles

Hardback

No other British Commercial vehicle
manufacturer produced such a diverse
range of products. There are chapters
on each range of vehicle produced,
they
featuring vehicle history and
development – all chapters being very
well illustrated. Subjects covered
include Military Vehicles; TCHD 2
Nuclear Weapons Transporters; Timber
Tractors; The Twin-load project;
Aircraft Refuellers including those
mighty 5 and 6 axled Pythons; Gritters
& Snow-ploughs; Crane Carriers; Dump
Trucks; Heavy Haulage tractors;
Internal Transport including the
Bulkrane project in conjunction with
British Railways; Truck Mixers. The
book also includes chapters on Foden
cab design and Vehicle designations,
an
Engine type schedule and a picture
index. This is a truly impressive book
by Wobbe Reitsma, well known in ERF
and
Foden circles for his enthusiasm for
these great but sadly now defunct
marques and his text, researched for
many years, is very well supported
with
over 400 b/w and colour pictures
sourced from many contributors,
enthusiasts and organisations. Few of
the book’s impressive range of
pictures
have been published in book form
before
and many are published here for the
first time. Foden Special Vehicles
features over 400 b/w & colour
pictures
in its 228 pages, is in hardback
landscape format with a separate dust
jacket – printed, bound and sealed in
the U.K.
