1946 David Brown Aircraft Tug

Having been retrieved from long term at Brooklands, the motoring team has fettled it and it runs! Ace spanner man John talks about how he managed to get the engine running.
See it at Working Vehicles Day at Brooklands on the 8th July.

Excellent, I enjoyed this and I hope the David Brown is on regular show. I have an agricultural David Brown tractor.

I was brought up in Stalybridge which is east of Manchester but my mother's family came from Mirfield, the other side of Huddersfield. When we visited Mum's family a favourite return journey was via Meltham so that we could go past the David Brown tractor factory and peer over the walls at the rows and rows of new tractors. Sadly the factory is long since gone.
