First vehicle issued to me was a 180 gardener atki seen here leaving Blackstones Stamford with what looks like a 16 cylinder engine
After Atki took over F88 UEW 856N seen here unloadig a traverser at British Railway workshops Milton Keynes with the same sixty foot trailer I had behind C.A.Whites 86
Then came my first new volvo F10 AEG766T seen on maiden voyage to Portsmouth to collect cat D8 for delivery to A66 Appelby and ibelieve it was first item of plant to build the bypass second photo is parked at Brough with Lefty green and 86 with the scraper box
After 5 years of heavy work 766 cracked her chassis and was replced by F12 A834 PFL and king trailer was sold to Lyon’s of Lincoln. I then took over triaxle Transquip trailer and a bonusloader axle which was built by transquip and first used on 766 refitted to 834. this axle could be unhitched from unit as it only hooked on like wny trailer as you will see by following photo’s
834 without third axle moving 85ft piling beams for anchoring old warship near H.M.S. Victory working for Dawson’s of Luton
