I do not have information about the Yeovil picture in 1943 but J. J. Wright and Sons Limited of East Dereham, Norfolk, England was one of the main companies supplying New Fordson tractors to the government and servicing tractors that were used on the aerodromes throughout the UK. The company was situated within a few yards of the railway station and train loads of Model N's were being shipped in for repair and out again after servicing.
