The British sailed from Calcutta in Scottish built paddle steamers and plied their way along the rivers of, what is now, Bangladesh to enter the mighty Brahmaputra River to sail due eastward into the dense, inhospitable, leech ridden jungles of Assam where those intrepid pioneers built tea gardens, collieries and logging companies. It was fitting that Staffordshire built Saddle Tanks should follow their enterprise and doubly so that these veterans should be still in service over a century later, having first been delivered from Bagnalls of Stafford during the late years of the 19th century.
