Heres a couple ive managed to find off ebay, hope it doesnt upset anybody. Cant remember which thread but they’re oldies anyway. Spent many a day in these plants lorries when i was a lad, and worked for McCready when i left school, its the last Atki to be made, it started out as a tipper but some muppet had it over twice so hence the flat
What great shots the two Plants ERF’s are TKS!!! just as I remember them,a superb fleet!! Cheers Bewick.

So this is old photo from Cert Warrington this was our shuntter that the Transport Manager got i think from somewhere in the South . Anyone got any info on it , it still has its reg plates on it
At that length the FM at Parkestone Quay must be a dock shunter, Whiplash.
Reminds me of what I think the Yanks or Canucks call a camel - an extra load space on the tractor which in some extreme cases, like long distance removals, becomes a super living space.
Sorry Willie,no better picture of the Moorlock yoke,or indeed any Comart.Sorry.
Spardo,Can`t understand it,as it must surely have been overlength.Maybe he dropped the trailer at the port and went off to tip the unit?

Brave man to park there, hope he got out of the ■■■■ Robin ok.
The locals probably tried to nick his sheets because it was in a better state than their bedding!!
Hi again,Nathen I think youre correct,I went there with my pal Adrian Cypher and I didnt take a lot of notice cos he was driving
Ok heres todays selection.
One of Ades pics,a classic motor parked in Swindon.
Nice line up of Salop Haulage’s motors,EUX592V survives in preservation.
Oliver Huish ran this White Road Boss,seen here at their yard in 1984.
A361 near Frome now and Weeks’s Strato tipper heads towards Shepton Mallet.
A nearly new Mole Valley Farmers 113 on the M4.
Whiplash has put some good Irish lorries on lately,sadly I’ve neglected our friends from over there so heres one of Transcontinentals 142s…more Irish lorries coming over the next few postings
A nice bit of kit this,heading north on the M5.
A well travelled Transcon,I’m sure a Trucknet regular drove this old girl.
the nose on the scania looks like the type of nose that was on a heavy haulage scamell s26 that was run by a firm called panerby or something like that
