PAUL GEE's PHOTO COLLECTION (Part 1)

Yes Dean, the Tilcon Foden was new to Ballidon quarry and given to Sam Hambleton who was the first employee back in the days when the first owner of the quarry ran a butchers shop in Ashbourne before he started into quarrying! With it having a white bumper in the pic (they were maroon when new) it was probably driven in that pic by the Late Derek Booth and based then at Kevin quarry in Staffordshire. However Bill Clowes (old stokie on this forum) also had a spell driving it at Kevin before Derek. :wink: I can’t remember if that one had the S40 cab fitted later, the sister truck (TRB 130K) did though.

Pete.
