Nestlé made far more than chocolate bars. They produced canned foods and many other dry food lines.

What was the difference between the Warriors and the Invincibles? Was it engine size? I had an Invincible 8 wheeler, cracking cab way ahead of its time.Nice picture of Rogers’ in the snow. They go back a long way, are they still going?
Yes Spardo and in that pic a cartransporter, and here’s another one thanks to Richard Says.

I worked on some of those BMC FJ’s and the earlier FHK models fitted with twin steering etc, the left hand driving position had the throttle in the centre wheras the right hand side had the conventional pedal layout.
Pete.
Bit of twin-steer TM by the look of it:
That one’s a Lawrence Transport example, a very tidy Kenworth fleet based in Bathurst. They’ve been around since the 80s, so must be doing something right.

Thanks SDU. I knew that wasn’t one of Bon Marche’s I just wondered if I’d remembered the name right.

Yeah mate, I realized you knew it wasn’t Bon Marche, I assumed they came from the old dart.

No, it was here where I saw them. They used to park a rig in Salisbury Brisbane.
Thanks to David and Robert, also Franky, for the Guy info, to Oily for the Rogers’ info and to Ray for the crane lorry on the Dock Road. As to the latter what does the 600 panel signify, is it attached to the lorry? Wasn’t the 600 Group a large scrap company? Might explain the location and the work being done.

I never realised how many bullocks were required for what looks like a fairly modest load, I can only see 3 Bullockies, were they always manned single handed?
