HI Dean
The red Scania is Channell Transport from Southampton if my thoughts are correct they had two or three & I think husband & wife drove two of them.
Cheers

Hi…I’m pretty sure the Blue & White Volvo F12 with the fridge trailer on the previous page is one of our old motors ( Fowler Welch ). I don’t know who D Jenkins is though, maybe the next owner or maybe a subbie. I’ll ask some of our long serving drivers if they can remember. Great picture though, thanks again for posting.Many years ago we had a Scania P93 6 wheel rigid that came originally from Fowler Welch it came via Knighton Trucks was registerd in Robertsbridge think the reg was G241YTW we ran her as a flat bed
It was a bit before my time with the company, but I’ll check to see if it’s the one I’ve got a photo of.

Super shot of the John Beynon Evans DAF from Llanmartin …they hauled out of the Orb works and Monsanto chemicals Newport and did a lot of continental stuff …along with the Bell port in Newport …remember chatting to one of their drivers at Hoover in Merthyr who had just loaded up …
Bill Clayton (Kelvedon) had a few Crusaders …as a lad can see them now taking part at the Risca carnival …Clive Price are from somewhere between Brecon and Hay on Wye …in season they hauled apples into Bulmers ! …Happy days Dean …Paul must be delighted with the success of this thread for the South Wales content alone …a happy new year to you both …Geraint
Great info as usual Geraint,thank the old man and tell him there are some Welsh gems still to come !
