An old Seddon on coal by the looks, Buzzer

I did a fair few miles in that motor in the early 60’s. Fireclay from Leeds to Steel Company of Wales, Port Talbot
Fred Chappell Batley.
I never liked the motor (P6 Perkins), the engine had a nasty habit of running in reverse but, I was only a young fella learning the job and when Fred said GO…you went.
A return load of Phurnacite, always short weight at the delivery point, the ■■■■ stuff dried out on the way back to Yorkshire.
No motorway, the route was over The Brecon Beacons, Shrewsbury etc.
