You've all heard of chinese whispers - then here is one which put me right in the boggy marsh I'm afraid. The 'reliable' source went to Brush works on biz. and saw a photo of Kestral on the wall in a line up with brand new Brush 4's. He was so pleased he mentioned it to his brother who told me 'he had seen kestral'

So what was I to think - a clandestine move through the channel tunnel under wraps at the dead of night all the way from Russia. Sorry to have wound everyone up but at least Bubblewrap didnt get his feet wet.

Good job nothing was said about the Brush steam locos or their trolley buses!

Or the milk floats, aircraft, there's loads more going way back to the Brushmobile CAR.

I've been to the trolleybus centre but didnt realise Brush made bodies for them! Never mind all the other stuff. Reminds me of the garrett works in Leiston and the kind of gear they made their, like Brush 2 bogie frames.

There is a good book on Nottingham Trolleybuses(see below)
Book law had some for the original price(£30) earlier this year.
