I was wondering if Ransomes (FR) trailers of the early 60s were made by them or by another maker, Petite(?) springs to mind.
Have checked my book regarding Ransomes.
Found that farm trailers with FR trademark and Ransomes colours came in the late 1950's They were made by F.W.Petitt at Spalding so your mind is not that bad.
Types: TT1017: 3 ton hydraulic tipper approved for Fordson Major and Dexta
TT1018 : Non tipper TT1017A =1017 with different jaw hitch and provision for moving axle forward.
TT1026 : 3.5 ton tipper with 10inch diameter brake drums.later various other types were added
See Ransomes history by Brian Bell.
