I have one of these 200 gallon tanks (minus the filters and accessories), same as pictured . And the same type of CS8 truck.

The tank was made by Thompson Bros. http://www.blackcountrymemories.uk/thompbros00.htm

Hi Mike, interesting to see the page on the Thompson Bros. A little while ago a number of photos "from the Thompson Brothers archive" turned up on FB, see one here: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...d.php?p=288926. AFAIK the Commer water tank truck was not taken into production.
