Eakring oil wells and the tanker trains to Scotland were mentioned in an earlier post. I grew up on a farm nearby and we had the "nodding donkeys" scattered around the fields. I can still remember standing at the side of a stationary one and jumping when it suddenly started without warning. Could never figure out whether they were on a timer or had to wait for the reservoir of oil to fill up? Does anyone have info on any of the above? Regards matthudson
