Caravans in the UK

I'm just after a bit of info to fill in the some knowledge gaps...

There were a couple of Airstream caravans that hit Europe. Which ones made it to the UK and how many trailers were there?

Many thanks,

Pete

Thanks cruiser54, but that's not what I need (I've already trawled through that list).

I'm looking for historical details of Wally Byam's European "caravans" in the 1950's. Did he make it to the UK? If he did, how many trailers came with him?

Collytwin2 - yes there is a UK forum. Have a look at UKAirstreamers. There are a lot of links to UK Airstream-related companies and services along with a forum for UK owners.

We've just held our fourth get-together where 29 Airstreams made it to a great weekend in Shropshire. This is the reason for my original question - is this the largest ever Airstream gathering in the UK?

In facebook I know Dale Schwamborn. He is proud family member of the Schwamborn and Byam families.
He can certainly help you!
Greeting Werner
