That’s a better quality picture of the TM than my “original” newspaper cutting. How did you manage that?

Had that cutting quite a while along with some of these below.
Some good sheeting and roping on this one at Parbold.
The load of reels of paper never moved,

Just wondered. I was the bloke who went out with the recovery truck to put it back on it’s wheels.
Aye that’s a secure load and VOSA bods today say ropes aren’t fit for the purpose everything must be strapped ! What do they base their experience on ?

Yep, I always watched that as a kid, think the main character was called Mike Malone, never knew it was set in Canada.
The rumble of the engine, the shifting of the gears…
Of course today it would have to be renamed… Carryfast
