Hi Mike,
Yes, it was at Keelers Tye, Peter Betts was certainly involved, along with the Burke Brothers - John & Robert. I think it was 1977 or maybe early 78 when Dad joined, and left early 82 when they lost the Woodcock contract. Dad’s name is Bryan Cavie, and he used to go overseas with (amongst others) Mick Dabbs (now owns Bawdsey Haulage), John MacSorley - Visbeen. There were some others, but can’t remember names at present - goes with the age I guess!

Hi Mike,
Have found some old photos, may be of some interest. If anybody else has any of these trucks, or any info as to their later whereabouts, would love to know…
OK, I’ll try again, Voltainers from Dagenham yellow Marathons, use to do Barcelona 85/86 , drivers were Jimmy Martin? and a guy called George, who sometimes had his Daughter Julie with him, someone must remember em.
