While the subject of LeToruneau scrapers is current, Id like to offer a trivia question.
Preface;
Tournapull was the term R.G. LeTourneau applied to the part of his early machines forward of the pivot point (engine, transmissioin, operators station) and were produced in "A, B, C and D" versions.
The "A, B and C" Tournapull primemovers were coupled to six different trailing units. The scrapers were called Carryalls. The other five were called TOURNA-----?
I have no prizes to offer for any "winner". Just trying to bring some life and interaction here.
