My very first backload when I started tramping was from Silver Roadways, 2 collections of cases from E. London for 2 drops Bath and Bristol.
The first of many throughout the country over many years.

A Scammell low loader carrying an Industrial steam locomotive in Manchester.
The registration number, GKC 295 is from Liverpool, perhaps it is one of Pickfords.

British Celanese Foden and where it might have been based.

Here’s todays collection nmp’s, Buzzer
Have seen the Tate and Lyle 6 wheel Foden picture before.
Taken during WW2, i believe the driver lived to a ripe old age
only passing away a year or so back… Great picture.
