If you could keep Parks of Hamilton in sight for more than a minute on the 74 or M6 you had a proper flyer :smiley: :smiley:

I drove for Parks of Hamilton, and yes we always gave it some clog down the 74 and M6. The Volvo C10M was my favourite vehicle. Flying machine, painted Battleship grey in those days. GBW.

Hi GBW, I heard a story a long time ago in the Moss cafe and it may have been just a bit of banter, but do you recall if one of the Battleship grey coaches was caught at somewhere near 110mph one night on the 74?

Hi Dave, Can well believe it, but it wasnt me Im glad to say, some of them would do in access of 70mph but I wouldn`t of thought you could achieve 110mph.GBW.
