Torsten and Ilona Eggert from Germany arrived at Sandstone on Freedom Day, 27th April, with their Hanomag camper van that they restored themselves to travel the world.
Torsten Eggert has a passion for Hanomag and Lanz Bulldog machinery, so our Visitor Coordinator, Mariette Palmer, took him to the tractor shed area and he was all over/underneath/on top of the Lanz machinery and couldn’t believe that Sandstone has such a variety of items.
He advised that his home in Germany is just 20km away from the original Lanz Bulldog factory that was later bought by John Deere.
