Bump

Have posted these before somewhere on here before but here is a one plenty of you might have seen before It is still working for a living today. A little bit of history it was put on the road new by a tipper company from Spennymoor called Tenwicks & although V8s i think they were also chipped, Tenwicks went bump & Gallacher Bros Annfield Plain bought 2 of them which were then sold on this being one of them, they both went well, we had a v8 500 but it couldnt get anywhere near them 2. The other pic of the old Gallachers was only taken a couple of yrs ago & was still on the road shunting local.

Harry Tenwicks was previously Barrons tpt from West Auckland. Them Scania’s couldn’t have been very old when Gallachers had them, I remember Tenwicks had big Scania’s, big Merc’s big Daf’s and for some reason a Eurotech. Someone drew the short straw there…

I’ve posted before that F310EDB was originally supplied by West Pennine to Mick Pollard from Trawden near Colne and was on for me at Transflash - having been down to Italy in her a few times I can vouch she went a bit :smiley: Might anyone know where her 6 month younger sister F750JNB ended up please?

It might be a bit heretical, but I never liked the Streamline/centurion - Toplines like these looked much more them part, especially in nice liveries like Millar from Randalstown IMO
