Hi Paul,
Wolverhampton Low Level Station, they turned it into a parcel concentration depot, I can remember the D series and the Commer Walk-Thru vans running out of there, by 1981/2 it was shut for good, now half of it has been demolished and a Premier Inn and pub built there and the main station building is an Indian buffet venue, all 200 yds away from were I’m sitting typing this! Cheer’s Pete

Only 200 yards away Pete, amazing. :smiley:

Here’a a few more ‘D’ Series from the archives.

That H.T.S.is a twin engined trial motor.Ford put out three of these.One to B.R.S and another to E.C.C.When the vehicle was running unladen or very lightly laden you could shut one engine down. It wasn’t meant to be a vehicle to be a for marketing.I’ve got some details but can’t find them but it is a copy of an artical in a magazine.I saw the B.R.S. one outside the Coach and Horses in Lower Tean on the old A50.I think Bedford made one I think Rotinoff made some.Youl find stuff on Google with more detail.
