Walker Brothers (Wigan)

Walker Brothers Limited was a manufacturer based in Pagefield Ironworks, Wigan, England.

It produced ventilation equipment for mining, truck and bus chassis (under the "Pagefield" name), mobile cranes, and railway locomotives and railcars.

[4] All the trucks had four cylinder petrol engines built by Pagefield, and all had chain drive to the rear axle.

[5] In 1913 a Pagefield truck was revealed which had been designed to meet the requirements of the War Office Subsidy Scheme, this adopted the Dorman 4JO engine, and replaced the chain final drive with a live axle and propshaft.

Launched in 1932, the Pagefield Prodigy was a refuse truck with forward control and a cab that could accommodate the crew.
