I remember the Norsman ERF. I think it’s was owned and driven by a husband and wife team, they used to run down to Spain when we were on the fruit, about the time they replaced it with a SK merc eurocab. Might be wrong. I think the other high tops are just spoilers.
The E14 was bought to replace the Eurocab 48, and Geoff and Lynn Walker said it was by far the best truck they ever ran. The Merc was pretty awful, by all acounts. Theres a bit written somwhere on the ERF European thread. Chris.

Thanks for putting me right Straight Eight, wasn’t far off, but I do remember Geoff and Lynn and both those trucks, there ERF was an L reg E series and about then for a short while I drove a K reg EC prototype K15 JGP in Jordon Racing colours which was blue from top to bottom, had a 400 Perkins and Eaton SAMT. It was one of an identical pair. Fabulous at the time

Yes you are correct about the Norseman ERF and SK Euro. And the other tall E-series being spoilers? You’re prob right, but they certainly look as if they might be accommodating! Robert
Hi all you ERF buffs anyone recognise this one ?
It’s now a shunter in Ripon
Regards , Jim
ERF shunter by fryske, on Flickr
I snapped that on a ■■■■ day at a cement works near Devoran -
It is an E14 and was very loud iirc!

Sorry Fryske, I should have acknowledged that one. The trouble is, I pulled a lot of pics off various sites for my own personal use before I ever came on TNUK, and of course I have no record of where they came from. Since contributing to the forum, I do now endeavour to take note of any new pics I copy so that that they can be duly acknowledged (as I hope you have noticed). Thank you for your forbearance! Robert
This one was still working recently – could still be?
- snapped at Trowell services
And Zippos circus have a good collection
I don’t think that one is working any more ,I’ve seen it for sale export style .

Not seen it for a while, myself
I snapped this one about 4 years ago - in Worcs - I think I remember seeing it for sale more recently so I suspect it is retired/exported now?
I saw this one too ,could of been at Bjj trucks ?
Was maybe an ebay listing - if they list on there?
Nasty weather last weekend…
A worker from your neck of the woods Dan? Is this still in use?
I think that Alan runs a newer one these days but still on much the same work. Haven’t seen him for a long while now, his brother still runs a tipper fleet based in Parwich.
