The pic of the grey vehicle is at an old Commer
Was it called a Superpoise that model ? Cheers Bewick.
Yes Dennis, Superpoise. I was told by ‘someone in the know’ years ago they were so called because of the equal weight distribution between the two axles. Morris-Commercial called their version the Equiload which I always thought were a lovely proportioned lorry.

Looking at the registration plate it looks like it started life with J .Shipstone and Sons at the Star Brewery in Old Bradford Nottingham
They ran quite a few 4 wheeler 2 stroke FodensThat’s right Gazsa you could always recognise their motors with the stars on the front.

Thos Fox also had 98/9 TTO, ex-Shipstones - I’m sure that one of them survived into preservation. I believe they flew, with 2-stroke engines and 12-speed boxes. As an aside, Bill Fox, then the boss of Thos Fox, was the chairman of Blackburn Rovers in the pre-Walker era. I think he succeeded another haulier in that position, Derrick Keighley, the owner of DT & N Keighley of Whalley & Norwich

Firstly the steer axle should be lighter than the drive anyway and probably the aim is to actually create more overhang by placement of the rear axle to do that.
Which leaves the question of how much is too much much to the point of lifting too much weight off the steer and putting too much on the drive which the idea,of a proportionally large overhang,obviously invites.With that rear axle position being more like that expected of the centre axle of a 6 wheeler in that regard.With much of the flawed reasoning,for a proportionally large rear over hang also being about reducing cut in at the expense of more tail sweep and now often taken to silly extremes in modern day designs.

I don’t like the look of the pipes on that Redland Marathon at all.download/file.php?id=220337&t=1
Nor for that matter is the load of steel (or ally) fabrications much better on the Ash Bedford TM
Yes ther have been some dodgy looking loads in amongst these pics “cav551”

The pipes on the Marathon are safe enough, look closely, they are scotched front and rear of each pipe with the scotches nailed into the longitudinal skids, the accepted method of securing concrete pipes. The only thing I would have done differently would have been to put a cross on the front and back pipes. Today VOSA would insist on also strapping through each pipe, but if the front and back pipes aren’t going to move then the others won’t go anywhere. At my previous company we did three or four loads of McCann’s pipes weekly and those with log burners had plenty of timbers and scotches to burn. The biggest concrete pipes can weigh over a tonne each.

Thanks for the comments “robroy” you have come over to the dark side then ?Did you have any ■■■■■■■■ companies in mind ? I did pop a small article on a few pages back about
■■■■■■■■ hauliers.
The type of guys who used to help me a lot when I started.For starters have you any trucks from Silloth, there were a lot of owner drivers and small firms from around there in early 80s, Whitfields, Frasers, P.A. Morgan, Cheri Foam, to name a few.
Or what about Duncan Hills from Maryport, they had stuff from TKs to ERFs and later on Scania 81s, John Walton small Fiats ERF and later Mercs.
West ■■■■■■■■■■ By products.Maryport… khaki and later orange tankers,.Atkis and ERFs orange Sed Atk 400s.
Thanks anyway.

Glyn John used that type of trailer whilst hauling bones and offal into Leiners at Treforest …DEAN amazing pics as usual …Love the Maldwyn davies of Hirwaun F88 …Geraint .
Thanks for the Cheri Foam pic Dean, they replaced their units with those and kept their trailers for the subbies to pull.
Keep looking for my list of pics mate won’t you.

Thanks for your comments Graham. “cav551” does have a point to be fair although that pipe load was
better secured than it looked there have been some iffy loads in these pics !
