those two bed fords look like derek ormes jim . if they are , that j type in the background behind the s type was the first lorry i drove , apart from g d rogers builders lorry , the start of a long slippery slope !.

That S-type looks like it was one of the last made. Photo taken when it was almost new?






In the 60th in France, one the first TK.

I used to drive a Bedford TL for A E Costin of Willenhall, back in 1999 or so. They still had quite a few, and the gaffer loved them because they were all paid for and everything they made was pure profit! they were rattly old sheds, but I (even though I was agency) and most of the regular drivers had a soft spot for them.

Here is a Costin Bedford, on the M6 at Corely by the looks of it. They had loads of these of this age and older … I think the oldest one in regular use was on a C plate.

Fullers brewery in Chiswick loved them they had the ones built by Marshall SPv for years

A Bedford TL tipper , still earning its keep , photographed recently in Valletta , Malta.

Cheers , cattle wagon man.

Another Bedford ( well…AWD ) still working hard on Malta , is this mobile fruit & veg. sales wagon.
It was photographed at around 9.00. p.m. one evening , and the owner was still selling goods at a steady pace.

" Roy Rogers " is the accredited name on the cab front panel. Instead of the steeds name being Trigger , this ones called Turbo . :smiley:
Does the turbo increase horsepower ■■? :unamused: :laughing:

Cheers , cattle wagon man.
