Hi All,
Does anybody have any photos and stories they can share about Moorlock Transport International from Stoke.
Red & White Volvos, this firm was a splinter off from Comarts when it was sold to Unilever, some of the drivers and staff went with the origanal owner of Comarts.
Started with F88 - 290’s and moved onto F10’s & 12’s
Very smart looking trucks
look forward in anticipation
Regards
Ant
There are some photos in the 80’s thread.

Bugcos,
Yes I rememebr Ian Adams, I used to go to school with his son Mark, who, last time I saw him, was doing Italy for Crossley European (L Woodward & Son) but they have packed up now.
Would be great if you could get hold of them photos, as I know he had one of the F88s at the time.

Flying Foden,
Thanks for them photos, there great, it is amazing there are any photos of either Moorlock or Comart as I remember most of the time was spent lubricating !!!, as it was when I was on the road, long hours behind the wheel requires rewarding I always say !!!
Does anybody remember ‘The Monk’ can’t remeber his real name ■■, travelled with him in Spain once, while running with Dad, had a photo of him in his F88 on the Irun border, I’ll see if I can find it.

Keep posting the brilliant photo’s Ant. 
I am afraid that the old eyesight is fading a bit young Willie. Tell me, was the bottom photograph taken on the docks at Anzio or was it the sea wall at Zeebrugge.
