Afternoon Chris,
Round Oak Motor Services moved from Grosvenor road in Gornall to Harts Hill between Dudley and Brierley Hill, you may have done a load out of Gadds on Pear Tree Lane Chris?
Taylors Transport had 2 x Volvo F7’s running around on the same registration numbers, just one of the stunts they got up to, my Uncle worked for them.
Nice information there Chris, you got a good memory there, Cheer’s Pete
Evening Pete.Yes,George Gadds I remember but never backloaded out of there but our artic drivers did.I’m obviously wrong about Pear Tree Lane then,why it rings a bell with ROMS I don’t know.I used to load out of their yard sometimes,never got messed about either and our gaffer told us to ring them first before anybody else.I was impressed with their tackle as well,I think they ran some Scania 110s late 60s.
Malc Stockhill aka Wheelnut remembers Taylors as well.That’s naughty running two on same reg plate.
