Ackworth / Onward Transport

Found a few more pics
This unit and trl was painted for a at the time new company New york seltzer it was going to be the next big thing but never was it was driven by Mick Barker one of the most genuine blokes you could meet went to work at BOC Transhield when they took us over i think he as retired now.
This one was taken at South Kirkby depot for a newsletter i think because they never loaded flats there it was at the old United Transport Distribution depot that Onward Transport took over in thre late 80.s
The two ERFs are i think were the first one that ackworth trans bought and at the time the newest and i seem to remember it was the hundreth bought i was told the driver that had it from new Des smith that he got all the best back loads out of Scotland so the lorry could make money.
