R143-500:
I remember them, they had an old Bedford TM tractor unit and a Transcontinental too, they used to bring steel coils into H E Samsons in Colnbrook back in the day, think they ran them out of Seacon on the Isle of Dogs, one of their drivers had Tourette’s ( genuine ), he was a smashing bloke, took a bit of getting used to when he added expletives every couple of words and ended every sentence with c**t, I did wonder early days if it was a ■■■■ take as I had never heard of Tourette’s.
H E Samsons from Colnbrook thats a blast from the past I used to load there in the 60s Off a London Clearing House IIRC They were called C & F Transport Ltd, It was a load of steel plate for delivery to Smart & Browns at Spennymoor, It was a regular job in those good old days, Regards Larry.
