Hello blackbox,
The West Coast Truck Road Run, I think, is in September, but sorry, I can’t give you a date.
If you contact Tyson Burridge Haulage, they might be able to tell you as they organise the event.
Hope this helps

stampers of dearham near maryport
i remember them well a regular visitor into manchester abatoir in the 60s along with long gone companies like claude hughes (carlisle) pickthalls (cleator moor) bells (botcherby) fellsde (lazonby) and many more.
Put the Johnsons 111 on magnify and check out the writing under the grille, I,m surprised that the driver didn,t keep that information to himself 
The name on the johnsons scania was the nick name for the driver who was i think willie ellwood
