Wynns Archive Volume 16

DVDPAL

This programme starts with more film
footage of equipment being moved from
Port Sudan to Rabak for the Kenana
Sugar contract. When Wynns Archive Vol
13 was produced we thought that there
was no more film footage about the
Kenana Sugar moves but this DVD
includes some 26 minutes of film that
John Wynn had not seen before. Detroit
Diesel powered Bedford TMs feature
heavily.

Following the conclusion of the Kenana
Sugar contract, and before the start of
the new contract with Polytra NV of
Belgium, three Caterpillar D7
bulldozers were hauled from Port Sudan
to Khartoum. Scammell Contractor
“Hercules” and two 50 ton semi-trailers
plus dolly were used. The journey
through Aqabar Pass was on the newly
completed tarmac road.

The final section of this programme
shows the first convoy from Port Sudan
to Khartoum hauling equipment for the
Sudan-Ren Fertiliser plant. Travelling
with the convoy was a five-axle Coles
truck mounted 120 capacity crane.
