Mmmm, clearly, while the roads were quieter, definately cleaner and despite the close proximity of a ‘boy in blue’, theives still managed to steal stuff from wagons.
Nothing really changes

Which were considered the best the Scania or the F88, i dont think the AECs would come into the equation?
It,s that old story about one mans meat etc. as far as drivers go its just a matter of personal preference. there are good and bad in everything unless you subscribe to the school of “anything else is rubbish”, which i dont.When we had the Scania 110 's they used to have a fold down bunk we didnt have any sleeper cabbed ones - they took up too much revenue earning loadspace! We had a lot of home made sleeper conversions though and ‘top sleepers’ before they really came about, if its down to personal preference thats another story.
