Marks & Spencer on trailer. Not sure who owns the ERF ■■?
Hi Dean, I think the Marks & Spencer ERF is Gist. Regards, Ray.
Hi Dean, Further to my previous comments, I think Gist were formerly BOC Transhield. Regards, Ray.
Thanks for the name and information Ray. 
Paul John:
Dean and Paul, the Stevens and Chambers ERF was probably one of the last they ran, as they sold up around 82/83. They also did a lot of lime spreading on farms.
Paul
Thanks for the comment Paul.

Hi Chris,
Thomas Brother were from Wrexham…they were also a removal company to…when they finished the name was bought along with Casserlys of Shrewsbury and the two names were merged together under the Britannia franchise …went on to be called Thomas Casserlys…I think they finished the Haulage before selling the removal side of the business.
Regards Mark
Hi Mark,
I presume this is the same Casserley’s?
Nice pic Pete !
coomsey:
N much appreciated Dean although I’m more of a D series man nowadays 
I reckon your winding me up “coomsey” 
Your a Foden man.
Wind up Dean? Never!
One of the best or maybes the best motor I ever had was a D series, at 32t with a 240g in her she went like the wind! N who could fault the Ford 12sp box? Shame they stopped making them. Cheers Coomsey.

Hi Pete,
Yes that’s the same Casserly’s…the two company’s were merged together to form Thomas Casserlys under the Britannia frachise…they were both old companies with good names in the moving industry. …I think Casserly’s son may have gone on to start a business of is own in Shrewsbury.
Regards Mark
Thanks for confirming Mark and for the pic.

The whites Renault is nothing to do with R whites lemonade, whites are from Kent ramsgate way I believe, one of theirs had a bad smash a few years ago on the old A3 by the devils punchbowl no ABS Susie fitted braked and jackknifed killing a booker artic driver coming the other way
Thanks for the information Rob.
Mark R:
Yeah, Whites are from down near Manston Airport. They’ve got mainly Mercedes lorries now but have been going for donkeys years. They used to be Orange before they changed to the current yellow livery and a couple of my colleagues used to work on there. A proper old school family haulier.
Cheers Mark for the comments.

Stephens & Chambers ERF bulker from Brecon.
Hey DEAN …super stuff as usual …Stephens and Chambers from Brecon …an old established firm sadly no longer with us …they did a lot of quarry work out of Penwyllt in the Swansea valley …seem to remember they had a Atki 6x2 artic …a surprise and very welcome pic …lol ,…Geraint
Thanks Geraint for the info. You will be pleased to here that Mr Gee was recently in Wales so there will
be lots of modern Welsh motors he will have taken photos off.
MANTRONIC:
hello Dean and Geraint , and Dean thank you very much for providing another South Wales gem in Stephens and Chambers .
They ceased haulage in the early 80s and that ERF would have been one of the last units bought new .
Geraint the twin steer ATki was GEU 170G ,they did about 3 loads a day out of Penwyllt for Llanwern ,they also did NCB work at Abercwmboi ,as well as doing lime/slag spreading .
Once again Dean thanx for some awesome South Wales stuff MT
Thanks for your input MT, Paul and Mark certainly got some good welsh stuff over the years.
I thought they only run
