Does anyone remember the south wales hauliers, such as Entress, Morfa Transport, Blue Line, Slver Roadways etc
This thread is now in the capable hands of pete 359 ( Andrew ) ex Joint Motorways driver.
I remember them they used to come by me like the clappers I worked for lucozade for 27 years on trunk we were always up and down the motorways I had a strato 465 when I finished that’s when they sold all there transport
Not all steel hauliers…

Yehhhhhhhhhh!!!
Bet your chuffed at that! I did hear there were 2 very red chambers on the workshop floor all spick and span!
I was down South Wales yesterday ,coming down from onllewyn through seven sisters there was an interesting yard on the left with some Fodens and Erfs in ,also I turned right after here by bridge terrace up to the forest there were more lorries on the right .
Hello Dan, the yard on the left is Morrison bros, but the mother Florence is the boss you wouldn’t want to cross her very colour full characters. The yard on the right is Bradshaws buys and sells lorries also big into his racing pigeons.
Thanks for the reply ,I did call at Bradshaws the lady said the man I wanted had gone out and they had another yard ,there was a E series unit F reg looked a possible restoration and others too .
