heres this years transporter.

 

Have seen it at close hand and is top notch, comes with a double bunk bed as well for the convoyers comforts.

 

 

[cemetary]

Smart looking transporter, how many doos does that carry, does it belong to the SNRPC or have they hired it from somewhere for the races.

this is south lanarkshires transporter that the snrpc get the use of . this is the bee's knee's

i think it holds about 1800 pigeons comfortably

[WELSH WIZARD]

Cracking transporter 8) 8) 8)

The transporter is an excellent facility with Geraldy quoting that the capacity is 2640 birds.But South Lanarkshire federation as far as club racing is concerned have decided to reduce that to 2240 birds.Inland National races it is 1840 birds and channel races it is 1600 birds.You will not get any better than this,top quality.

[WELSH WIZARD]

well the snrfc is only a small national so the transporters is definaltly plenty big enough

[b.massey]

Maybe smaller than some but I get the feeling the birds welfare is high in priority and I will be sending my birds with this national this year I think

[Chris Little]

Small or not it is a cracking transporter, I know my doos will be well cared for onboard and an excellent convoyer to match

totally agree vincent top of the range , when i said 1800 birds i was talking about oversea's races , that is 22 birds /panier so the birds have plenty of room and  with the ventilation ,sorry air conditioning, the birds are transported in first class condition, and we are very lucky and very grateful to south lanarkshire and of course gordon geddes for the use of his smaller but equally as good transporter.

when have the snprc had 1800 birds oversea

[Guest bigda]

what is the true amount  that it can carry, geraldy say 2,640  how many baskets and how Manny in it, just wanting to know how Manny baskets  are fitted in to that  transporter and why would geraldy say it holds  that Manny :-/

[WELSH WIZARD]

seen as no one wants to answer your question redwhiteblue i wiil instead NEVER its to smalla club for that many birds

[Chris Little]

It is the quality of the opposition that matters, not the quanity true long distance fanciers appreciate that.....

 

Mind you, cant think of that many races since the new millenium where the SNFC have exceeded 1800 pigeons either

[Fair Play]

Some posters must thrive on a negativity diet morning ,noon & night the bog must be stinking getting rid of all that verbal diarrhea

.The question was asked how many pigeons can this transporter hold and i answered  by saying it can hold 1800 for oversea's races , obviously more for inland races , so get off yer high horses your a sad lot .

Hi

Geraldy when you ask for a quote work it out at 32 birds per crate

The SL transport has 80 crates hence 2560 birds

Lanarkshire are 8500/9000 so we require app 281 crates (save you working it out) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

even 3 SL size would only hold 7680 birds

Cheers

  Hi Alex i knew that mate,but them being a German company 33 is what they do recommend.But as you have pointed out Brittish legislation is different.

 

 

[JADE]

how did south lanarkshire fund their transporter? what year is the truck it is mounted on? and the big question....what did it cost. I`m asking because I think all feds will have to go this way before too long.

[hotrod]

i think you would need to ask south lanarkshire about the cost etc .not sure if any on here are from s/lanark
