These were taken in 2009, the fleet here has changed now to mostly Volvos with one Foden Alpha left. At the time I took these the fleet was all Foden (mostly 3000 series) except the 2 tippers and ERF artic unit.

Newbold Quarry, Barton under Needwood Pete, I had to fetch it from Pode Hole Quarry, Thorney (A47 out of Peterborough)
Saturday afternoon did seem to be the best time to do this job as I didn’t have to have a site induction at Newbold.
