I remember the 2,25 cwt sacks OIltreader, thankfully they stopped not long after I began working in a feed mill between plant jobs, you had to get your back under them just right the first time didn’t you. Lovely photos, thanks for sharing them.

Aye , those sacks were ■■■■ heavy and awkward to carry. The warehouseman at our feedstore saw me struggling with them and offered me advice . ( I was only 18 at the time . ). He advised me to head into town that weekend and choose an
18 to 20 stone lass for the weekends fun . He said that by the time I
d manhandled
her for a few nights , then the sacks wouldnt seem too heavy afterwards ! ! And sacks don
t drink either , so I was told !
Cheers, cattle wagon man.

The Steam Wagon is a ‘YORKSHIRE’ Oiltreader, I believe that they patented that type of boiler. Great pics by the way.
