Here’s two of them:

I wonder if the later one was bought in response to the 44 ton proposals, that the Gov were looking at in 1970? I thought those proposals called for a double drive tractor, so I can’t explain why it is a 6x2. SoM historians may be able to shed more light on it.

Talking about sheds, that Hipwood and Grundy motor has a rather rough-looking sleeper conversion.

About April '76 I bought a S/hand CF 40ft trailer of Ivinsons it was only a couple of years old and immaculate. I collected it one Sunday and they had left it out parked next to the village green IIRC the village was Ivegill but it’s a long while ago. And if IIRC it’s Bewick fleet No. was either 42 or 43 ! Cheers Bewick.

In an old thread/post on TN there is a shot of an SoM Scania coupled to one of their Highway trailers and I’m sure it is a double drive bogie plus it is lettered “HEAVY HAULAGE” across the front bumper. Cheers Bewick.

Many thanks anorak,just the ticket.

I do know that SoM were very active in the transporting of Caterpillar earth movers from Glasgow area,perhaps the double drive was purchased with this in mind,they had a couple of Guy double drives with 220 ■■■■■■■ in them too.
