What’s wrong with 5mph? You get the chance to enjoy the scenery at full scale! Bloody youngsters these days, only want to do things in top gear… :unamused: :laughing: :laughing:

Figured that much already mate :wink: Was more wondering if they had more Titans in the fleet, apart from the one that came from Sunters?

Brilliant pics of Econofreight, they had a very varied stable, a serious player in the heavy haulage game for many years.

Here’s some more mini heavy haul stuff from my past couple of weeks, got a 360 from Winnipeg and took it to Toronto, then loaded the diamond drilling rig from a gold mine near Timmins, Ontario and I’ll tip that Sunday morning after a night at home and a visit to the curry house tonight .

Such a beauty, on behalf of Dean, cheers for the pic mate :wink:

Indeed always nice to see a pic of Wrekin’s Constructor. :wink:

Dean,if I’m not mistaken,I think you will find that Wrekin’s "Constructor"is a “Contractor”.

One of those Atki’s at the end of it’s life, this one was wasn’t fitted with a RR engine, was it?

As it is most likely a Leicester depot one (sleeper cab), I would have thought a ■■■■■■■ was in it. I know for certain that mine, which looked very like that (only a tad smarter :unamused: ), was ■■■■■■■■

Note how all the badges have been removed from the rad. Tom Llewellyn’s aversion to unpaid advertising. :laughing:

Never seen that white Scanny before, doesn’t ring any bells… maybe a certain “fan” knows more about it… :wink:

Aye, pity that there’s nowt left of it…

What are you’re thoughts on your new trailer, is it as good as you hoped it was going to be?

You drove a “Crapkinson” too David…? :open_mouth: :laughing:

I was just thinking about those badges, take them off of all the new motors out there today and you would be clueless as to what make it is…

I wouldn’t have put it like that at the time, or even now come to think, I thought it was the bees knees, my first sleeper cab and the only one in the fleet with power steering. If you don’t count the F 86 with a board behind the seats and some pretty curtains. :laughing: :laughing:

It’s much easier to work with than a mechanical one, pulling levers beats crawling around on the floor and coupling/uncoupling multiple times during the loading process every time. Kinder on the truck too, no ramming under the trailer to pick it up anymore.
