Hello
Has anyone got any photos past of present of the fleet of Martin Oliver, the disgraced Hexham hauliers lorries?
I Think the business became part of Wm Armstrong (Longtown) and they ran some of there ex fleet for a while.
I have also been told they did work for James Jones & Sons of Lockerbie?

Can someone help me on this request please
Kindest regards

Hello prattman

Excellent photos marra. Many thanks

I personally can’t remember Oliver’s running drags so it’s good to see some photos of them

I only remember the MAN TGA’s they ran before packing in

Hello marcus22

I only put “disgraced” because people I’ve talked too have said that

Its good to get another side to the story
