Old Firms in Oxford Area

Anyone with info on these: Do you remember Dykes Bros. There dad ran a few coaches from a yard in Cowley, opposite John Allen works, by where the Cowley shopping centre is now. The lads moved into haulage when taking over and later moved out Aylesbury way and had contract with Crendon Concrete I believe. Another firm was Werell’s ( not sure about the spelling. ) Red & Yellow motors, think they also traded as “Wekankarrit” but might have just been a slogan painted on the motors. Then there was Tuckwells, ran mostly tippers, but a few flats on cement & timber, all Bedfords. I had a short spell with them, also Hartwells oils, when they were down Osney. Any info would be much appreciated, or any more you know of. Thanks. :slight_smile:
