The 1st picture of Ford D Series POU 920G is from 1970, seen in the yard at Horndean, soon after the
takeover by Robert Baillie Transport. It is coupled to a Baillies trailer, but still in Percy Powell livery.
In picture 2, POU 920G is again seen at Horndean in 1971, now in the Midnight Blue of Robert Baillie.
The 3rd picture is POU 920G, now as a full time driver training vehicle, painted white.
I passed my HGV Class 1 driving test on this lorry in October 1970, when it was still in Percy Powell
livery, and “Mappo”, Tony Mapson from Southampton also passed his HGV test in this vehicle in 1971.
