First time I've seen a Humber with two Humber trailers. Sure looks good. Don' know if it would be legal in OZ. I've hooked my jeep trailer on behind my Humber trailer. Maybe I should have bought the one just sold on Ebay.

Maaaagnificant Waltz, Green with envy.
I was talking to a guy who used to tow his 25 pdr and limber behind his gun tractor, over 30mph the last in line wandered a fair bit.
Rick should be alright, they're going to allow BTriples over here, that means he's got room for another.

For those overseas from OZ, we call our trailers Humber Trailers as thats what they were to be towed by. Most here were built by Corio Air Engineers P/L of Belmont Vic. near Geelong. The square guards are an Auzzie thing. A cheap replacement for the lovely curved lines of the pommie ones. My trailer has the holes for the curved guards but has the Auzzie square ones.
