Shaun I remember those green trucks, It was said in our parts that it was not posibale to pass one as you could not go quick anough When I first started I had a Bedford TK 12.35ton gross and one early morning I was heading south on the A49 loaded up with fertilizer and had followed one of Cadwallader Bros for a while. I managed to pass him going up Queens head south of Leominster, well it must have upset him because he was up my arse all the way through Hereford
The worst part was no one beleaved me when I got back
Do you have any trucks nowadays. Did’nt you used to carry scrap metal in tippers.

I remember them working in S. Wales, running low loaders out of HY-MAC with 360 excavators and loader/diggers.Iirc they did the U.K. and Europe deliveries before the factory closed down.
I’ve got a Scania 111 brochure somewhere with a pic of a Lloyds of Ludlow motor in it taken on a building site somewhere,it’s pulling a flat trailer with a load of steel on.I’ll try and sort it out and put it up.
