Should I be worried now Dean? You’ve posted stuff about Scammell Routeman’s mate, I know it’s not in the same league as the Crusaders but still, it’s Scammell pal! :laughing:

Where’s that nurse when you need one…

That (S)cammell :laughing: tanker of Charlie Websters could be driven by TrucknetUK member ‘Wirksworth Rod’ as he had a spell with them, as did several others on that squadron who ended up at Ballidon quarry.

Hi Dean, I had a mate who was on for MCD(Mainland Car Delivery) back in the 60s/70s they loaded out of Lyehill Quarry pound at Wheatley, Oxford, dunno what happened to them, swallowed up I guess, Dieseldog might know.
I also remember a fatality at Lyehill Quarry pound, a driver was crushed when a hydraulic feed to the top deck rams burst.
Cheers
Oily

On September the 9th 2010 the Cheshire firm of Autocarriers, which traded as MCD (Mainland Car Deliveries} entered administration.
It was the second time MCD had entered administration in less than a year as in the previous November MCD had been sold by administrator BDO in a pre-pack administration deal to Autocarriers its sister company.
At the time MCD had an O-licence for 150 vehicles along with 150 trailers.
On the 1st of October 2010 Northampton-based car transporter Autologic acquired a large proportion of the business for £500,000.

Afternoon Dean,
You have posted some cracking stuff on here mate, I think PV83 has gone to lie down in a dark room!
Thanks for the Tipton Transport TM,
The Scania livery looks like Bibby’s colours or very similar to George Varneys? Cheer’s Pete

Hi Paul,
Yes that is the same company that Sherwood took over, the colours were green and yellow but I seem to remember the green was a darker shade. As a foot note I think that yard of Varneys was the site of the original Watford gap services, on the A5 obviously not the M1, Cheer’s Pete
