“NEI ERF. I wonder what this truck carried as the sides are very low ■■?”
Hi Dean, my guess would be small sacks of ball bearings or shot.
Oily"The ERF belongs to International Combustion Ltd., of Derby.I think their place was on Sinfin Lane,I delivered steel there once or twice late 60s.
I don’t know what the NEI sticker stands for.
NEI stands for Northern Engineering Industries. NEI bought the company I worked for, W.H.Allen of Bedford. They owned many heavy engineering companies mainly involved in power generation. I used to deliver and collect from Sinfin Lane Derby. They had a small fleet of mainly ERF vehicles, some artics and a couple of rigids.
