davis bros

Hi Ben, No I didnt work for them but knew some of the drivers. I worked for the BRS when the firm that I originally was at got taken over by BRS. The firm where I started as a 16 year old trailer mate was Mack hauliers of Bradfield road Silvertown. When Brs shut that depot in 54 I was then moved to Southwark and then Tufnell park. I left that in 1957 and worked for UCC at bow common Lane. We then took the brs yard at Yabsley street and then the ponderosa at Warley. I beleive that a trailer mate who started driving the same day as myself was named Davey and at the end of bradfiel;d Rd Started with Davis. Regards Bill S.
