Sargents Trucking Services

Hi .Has anyone got any photos of the STS Roadtrains or any good tales to tell.

If you’re on about Simon Sargeant from Atherstone, I’d like to see some picturse of his trucks. I knew Simon when he first started & he was a very nice young man.

That’s the guy who won his Leyland t45 in a Truck mag competition?

Dave Barraclough drove for him.

There is a top photo on Ebay at the moment ,I also seem to remember his Trucks at the Shows .

Yes he did, fair play to him too. I met simon when I was on trunk work for TNT, he used to pull trailers for them he’s a nice chap. I can remember him coming into our depot to pick up a trailer just after having the new T45 delivered. I think he went on to do a bit of show work with them as his fleet grew, I don’t knowif he did any truck racing but I’m sure I saw his truck at Donnington. With a bit of luck he might post a few pictures on here.

i remember seeing a new magnum of his,in dover/calais around 1991/92?i think he later had scania’s?after the roadtrains.

I recall seeing Simon down at Pinnacle International narborough with his brand new Magnum on its miaden voyage, it was red with STS in silver . Truck magazine where there taking pics and writing reports on it. He got priority over me to load 1st cause truck mag where there :imp: . He was loading for somwhere in europe and i was taking a pinnacle tilt to do a change over in dover with Pinnacle driver geordie Geoff " he was on the stobart documentary doing Begium ".

from the leyland roadtrain thread
