Chris Webb:
Hi Dean.
The ERF is one of Hipwood and Grundy’s from Farnworth Lancs.They had two with the Jennings sleeper,both with 240 Gardner. :smiley:

Taken not long before they folded. Hipwood & Grundy was a sizable company in its day, famous for its elderly Leyland Octopus tankers that were going on for 20 years old when they closed down.

I remember those old Leylands running about Graham,usually out of BTP and LTD Cadishead early 70s.They went well with those old wagons of Horrocks as well. :laughing:

Thanks for your comments Chris and Graham. :wink:

The day-cab ERF with the twin air-intake stacks pulling the sheeted flat you enquired about was from the fleet of F Hackney of Sandbach.

Well spotted “marky”, thanks for the name. :wink:
