Some 6x4 units CG. Foden were always best where it was heavy or dirty

Hello truckfing

Many thanks marra for those excellent photos.

Couldn’t agree more.

Don’t suppose you have any photos of W Morrison supermarkets Foden Alpha’s do you?

Don’t think Morrison’s have any Foden’s now, seem to be all Volvo FM13’s & DAF CF’s

I think Fodens were the best trucks ever made…discuss Only kidding, I don’t want to open that again! On with some photos!

Keep calm, and drive Fodens

Hi Moose.

I recognise that Alpha!

S724 CNW - Bought brand new in 1998 by my old fella.

Still in his colours in this pic! (If you go back through this post, you will see a few more of his fleet).

I may have a pic of S724 CNW somewhere. I will try dig some out and post them up.

Out of interest, when is your pic from? I’m assuming you no longer run S724?

Cheers.

That pic was taken just after andrew barker at pikehall bought it! we took the steel body off and fitted an alloy body, it was then painted and run out of ivonbrook quarry, its been gone a while now not sure where it went, if i remember right you had a new one in the same colour moving them big lumps of stone about
