HC Deb 26 February 1900 vol 79 c1085
MR. LOUIS SINCLAIR, () Essex, Romford

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether he will consider the advisability of ordering more traction engines with hauling gear to hoist guns on difficult positions; and whether the traction engines now in use are armoured.

*MR. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS

Traction engines with very powerful hauling gear have been ordered in addition to those already in South Africa. Some will be armoured.
