Leigh Donovan from Robinvale, Victoria,Australia sent me these pictures.
Leigh looks after maintenance in the Robinvale cemetery, in true Aussie style he collected the parts for this trailer from the local "K-Mart" or Refuse Tip as we call it over here, and built it himself. He uses it to cart his tractors around and to hold the spoil when graves are dug.

The rust is only surface rust in a lot of cases but they do get knocked around. A lot of the ones I saw were pretty bashed. This is how my Dotty looked when I got her home from New Zealand.
They do work them hard.
