gazsa401:
Great article on the Barton’s Scammell Handyman Dean
I drove it once (around a small yard)whilst it was having a few problems being sorted out at County Truck Services in Nottingham
Also in the article was the mentioning of Barton’s doing Middle East work
One of the drivers mentioned was the late Terry Bywater a dead ringer for Rigsby (Leonard Rossiter)
I had the pleasure of working with him at Stirlands and some of the stories he told about his trips to Iran were brilliant
Cheers Gary [emoji1303]
Glad you enjoyed that Gary, i bet Terry had some great photos of when he did the ME.

Hello DEAN…that Maggie looks like a firm by the name of Sheppersons from the East Mids …years ago they hauled scrap metal offcuts to a smelter plant at Llanelli called Bachelors AMG …the offcuts from Metal Box Leicester …Owens and Llanelli based John Evans did similar work…as well as Illtyd Thomas …lol …Geraint

I never noticed the number plate was missing MT !
Mark R:
This looks like a cracking truck…maybe an owner driver, I certainly don’t remember them.
I think they were only s small company based at the docks Mark. Cliff or geoff if they look in will probably remember
them. Heres another one of the same Transcon and a DAF they run.
