atkins derby

Hi Carl: This is how I will always remember Atkins. The splendid red, brown and yellow. One of smartest liveries around in it’s time.

and heres an “old un”. An Atki for Atkins… :wink: get it :confused:

Thats why i nominated them for the "Great British Haulier" thread, I was still a bit miffed that the response was ZERO, but, obviously, this thread has better taste :open_mouth: [Ill get me tin hat]

Cracking livery, cracking kit [for the period], very forward thinking [again, for the period].

And, fearless when up against the dock union, I think they were still banned from a port in the south, right upto their sale + demise :open_mouth:

The main man there was paronoid about “revs”, their tacho`s all had a “rev” read out on the back, IIRC :sunglasses:
