Neville Charrold Trailers

aye not so bad john , hows yerself ? i remember davem plant with those trailers , and a firm from stockport had some with ford d1000 units , can’t recall their name . we had some at tunstead when the ici tarmac plant opened, but they were useless on the pavers , too short to reach the pan . they were forever going back to nevilles for modifications , but they were never right for the job . i see sam going past regular , still doing a bit for johnny goodwin , their yard is behind our house . cheers , dave

That’s the one!!! Perfect, cheers!

Aye Franky, I remember tye Lima & Trinadad had some AECs with that type of trailer running out of their depot at St Peters, 69/70s, Regards Larry

Larry when I worked at Hodgson’s (later Lex Tillotson) the AEC distributor on Benton Rd, we had a couple of lovely brand new Mercury Ergo’s in with those dump trailers, they later gave me the inspiration for the model but I’ve tried to rack my brains over the years to remember what the livery was and you know it could well have been Limmer and Trinidad now that you mention it. I chose Tarmac in the end for the model as I presumed they could well have had them also. Limmers would have been a nice one to do all the same, maybe next time! St Peters eh, where I was born too! Cheers Franky.

The Lima livery was Green,the depot was on the left as you headed for Walker Rd, Near the low bridge, A lad that worked at Shorties left & went work for them, Harry Laws was his name, they used to load red gravel from Harden Red Stone Quarry,at Biddlestone, & take to their Tar Plants, there was a one at Blaydon in those days… I also remember TT.Walker having a couple with Bedford TUs. Regards Larry
