[David_Hayward (RIP)]

Well, the first book was drafted some time ago BUT new information has come to light as a consequence of my hard work with VINTAGE ROADSCENE and the pre-war British WD vehicles story that is truly fascinating! Basically I have a lot of answers now as to 'why did they [in Canada] decide to go that way'. Essentially I have found a lot more information about the use of the Marmon-Herrington systems in WD experiemental vehicles, together with similar multi-drive systems that we all know of in MLU.

The first book is scheduled for March 2006 release now, but the second book is already written in part and then we should have one every six months I hope.

I still need some assistance please with some aspects, namely which CMP types were first and beagt the others so to speak. If anyone can offer assistance I shall be very grateful and will acknowledge and remunerate.

In the meantime I have had printed and released the English Electric Type 4 Class 40 locomotive book, and the British Chevrolet buses book [1920-32] is going to print shortly. I am working on book on Ice Cream vehicles and will edit more VRS articles..the pre-war story is going to take some telling over several issues!!
