Default British heavy trailers in WW2

Hi,

I'm looking for info on the heavy trailers used by the British in WW2.
Are there any sources to find info on the dimensions of the trailers?
Many thanks.

regards,

Dennis

I'm looking for info on the trailers used by the REME units, especially the ones that carried the heavy equipment like bulldozers, any info on the recovery trailers is also very welcome.
Many thanks for the reply.

Dennis
