Yes Bostocks are still going with a white Daf 55 flat bed. That’s what I’ve seen anyway! Are Watts Brothers in photo 3 still operating?

This picture was also published in the brochure…a LBG303 (single drive) or LBG304 (double drive)
and had the Gardner 6LXB to move the 30tons

Thought I would add these two pictures of a couple of ERF’s that arrived in the park at the back of our house this morning (6th June 2015)

Thanks for that one, Ted. The last time I saw Rex he had the L10.

Yes both were immaculate, it was a sad day when ill health forced him to sell up. The L10 can still be seen in Transrex colours pulling a cattle trailer.

This ERF is on an F-plate, which was about '67 time. It’s a demo unit with Fuller Roadranger 'box. It says so on the roof headboard but I can’t read whether it says 9 or 10 speed. Very unusual for a 4x2 unit to have an LV crew-cab / sleeper-cab. Robert

Fact is that Eaton-Fuller wanted the market together with ■■■■■■■■ Since May 1961 ERF applied ■■■■■■■
(in fact then a NHK180) but then ‘only’ with Dabid Brown’s 657 gearbox…times changed.

Once there was.
