Hi Richard

Here is another item on Trail-a-Home which is from Keith Winsor's No 3 Caravan Yearbook of 1950 which gives details of the 16ft model. This one really takes my fancy, something about the style that appeals greatly.

Hi George.
This is the caravan we were talking about last weekend. They are a very "cute" looking van, and if I can find it I have a photo of a smaller version that has canvas awnings over the windows.
There is only one surviving Trail a Home that I know of and it belongs to Ray in Queensland, I think he rescued it last year and needs restoring.

Cheers.
Richard.
