I didn’t get he full reg or any other details but I saw a stobart truck earlier, an '07 plate… Didn’t think they ran trucks that old?
Hello matt3903
That will be H127, one of subbie Ed Brewers Scania Toplines of Penrith.
Thats the only 07 reg in the fleet at the moment.
The oldest truck in the fleet (run by Stobarts rather than a subbie) is H011, P11 ESL Lucy Hannah, a ERF EC11 4 x 2 tractor unit.
The oldest truck run by a subbie is a 2002 reg Scania 124L Topline.
Hope this helps/of interest marra
Kindest regards

I’m sure it was a scania, definitely pulling a stobart trailer.
The EC11 must be on a special job is it as I think the oldest of them would be like a W or X reg (I know P11 ESL is a private reg)

Hello dew
I belive the ERF EC11 works hauling trailer around the site and to other depots locally.
Its sometimes parked around the back of the depot on the Carlisle Bypass (I’m sure you’ll know where I mean)
All the W & X reg are shunters, based at the large depots.
Heres a photo of the ERF EC11 in question back in 2007 at Carlisle
Sorry the photo isn’t that good. Didn’t have a great camera back then

Hello BIGGEE
Thankyou for that marra. I think at the same time, Corgi did the ERF EC11 fuel tankers didn’t they. Esso, BP, Q8 etc.
I though the Volvo looked like a code 3.

Thats sounds good Jonny. I’ll look forward to seeing if you catch any Stobarts next week
Out of interest, which canal did you take a walk along?
I took a walk along the canal in Knottingley mate, I got as far as what seems to be a scrap yard where I was met with a couple people who didn’t like me being there Put my mood a little bit down so I ended up going back to my usual spot! Have a few more stobart shots for you, just waiting for them to upload
Hey gill just a quick question, what has stobarts done with the irlam/connor contracts cause you don’t see any of the stobart liveried wagons with irlam or Connor on the side of the cab anymore?
