The old EC12 yard shunter, looking a bit rough but still fires up first time, But of course those RRs were allways good starters even in the coldest conditions, Regards Larry.

There was 3 of theirs at Barnard Castle last weekend Lawrence,their new DAF looked nice but it was a bit basic inside no radio and rubber mats apparently and it was odd not seeing the ERF it’s been such a regular site at Truck shows.

That’s a very very smart looking unit Larry keep the photographs coming , Adams must have good results from their other DAFs to purchase these in preference to the usual MANs / Merc`s .?
