Hudsons of Pudsey and Hudson Shepherd Transport

atlas man:
If memory serves well I think the shepherd vehicles were green and I think they had some Bedfords with a box body on, that is if it is the same company

You’re correct Shepherds vehicle were green mostly box vans,although they did have a couple of flatbed I believe,this was because at the time James Shepherds were the Vauxhall/Bedford agents for the Calder Valley.they were based in Hebden Bridge and ran the vehicles from a yard on Valley road.My late brother Andy Butler worked for Shepherds and later when they became part of Hudson-Shepherd when joined with Arthur Hudson’s of Pudsey.
