Re: Long Departed Southampton Hauliers
Paul Kingsley was the owner of PJK we worked side by side out of Pompy pulling SCAC trailers for RH&D, he had two motors on that and I had three that's how I knew Paul and that was the early 80's he then got in with MacDonalds and I subbied of him taking buns to Spain etc good job back then and both companies grew as the work expanded, cheers Buzzer.
Re: Long Departed Southampton Hauliers
Lambert Brothers certainly had 4 FL10 Volvos on WimVos contract, and that photo seems to be taken opposite Soton tank wash, but is that one of theirs? My poor memory thinks their Volvos were "E" reg? But I could well be wrong.
Re: Long Departed Southampton Hauliers
Both the FL10 & the F10 (A737 RBK) were 2 of the Voss contract vehicles operated by LTS Freight Ltd .Both pictures taken at the Tank wash adjacent to the (then) dry dock.
Re: Long Departed Southampton Hauliers
Morning all, The two F10's with drum blowing fear were the last Volvo's I sold. Delivered about Dec 1984. Harvey
