Hi Guys. It’s good to see this thread resurrected and since I have a few minutes at hand I thought I would add a few more to the fray.

I like the leyland Dump truck Richard ,Ben Bennets had a fleet of these ,I think some were badged AEC and may be Scammell as well as leyland.

[richard_stanier]

Thanks Dan. Those dump trucks must have been the most re-named trucks ever built! They even appeared as an “Aveling Barford.”

Sorry I’ve been away for so long, but as well as being away for several months on the road, I also managed to break my laptop, which I couldn’t
replace till I got back home.
So here’s something I consider rather special to try and kick-start the thread again…

[richard_stanier]

Welcome back gb. Nice to see the thread re-invigorated. Here’s a few more from me too.

When I first started my driving career, I had the dubious pleasure of driving this …

Here’s a brochure for the FORD A-Series. Anybody got an English version?

[gb1]

Whilst we’re on FORD’s, here’s a couple more…

[gb1]

Today’s offering comes from the PACCAR stable, this one being by PETERBILT.

[gb1]

And at the other end of the scale, again by PETERBILT, we’ve got this…

[richard_stanier]

Hi GB. Here’s some English A Series for you.

[richard_stanier]

And here is another Peterbilt for the party - a 362E from South Africa

[gb1]

Keep em’ coming Richard. That A-Series brings back so many memories.

We had an A Series dropside at the quarry when I worked for Tilcon, it was used as a stores truck and travelled around the various quarries and plant’s distributing parts etc from our Central Stores. It had the four cylinder York engine, took forever to start and was flat out at around the 48 mph mark. I remember a trip down the M6/M5 in it, painful is an apt description!

Pete.
