Apparently, according to the side of the truck, it is available for hire.

Mez & I spotted one of those drain cleaning wagons today & it was working just inside the Hyndburn area, but we didn't have a camera so I don't suppose anyone will believe us.

Re: They do exist!

The last time I saw one with the logo "Hyndburn Works" on the side was about 14 years ago in St James St. The nozzle which was used to suck up gunk from the drains was loose and flailing about wildly as the truck travelled up the road (not actually sweeping) and sprayed pedestrians with indescribable filth.

Re: They do exist!

You should always have a small pocket camera with you wherever you go, you never know when you might need it.

One day last January (or thereabouts) we went over to Halifax and on the way saw some wonderful icicles. All the way there I kept saying I wish I'd had a camera to photograph them as they would have made a brilliant photograph - got home and found I'd had a camera in my bag all the time!!

All those things are necessary.
