Cheers Dean! Interesting unit on that last pic (I took the liberty to “restore” it somewhat) and a nice follow up to the next subject I was wanting to bring to the table, because if my eyes don’t deceive me, that trailer looks like a Cometto…

I put that on there on purpose as i knew you would probably want to mention “Cometto” :blush: :unamused: :wink:

May i say what a fine piece it was ! Some very intresting pics there chap ,especially the Pacific of STSI !
Now as i understand it,they took over Transport Loste ! Have your contacts got any pics of the ERF NGC’s
they operated Patrick ■■? :smiley:

A mixed selection.

Reading my mind are we, Dean :laughing:

About those NGC’s… they actually wanted to buy some proper lorries i.e. Crusaders… weren’t available at the time, so they’d settled for second choice you see… :unamused: don’t reckon they took lots of pic’s of the NGC’s, but I will do me best to come up with something…

Nice batch once again mate, love that pic where they’re putting that dozer on… :open_mouth: :unamused:
Not for the faint hearted then eh :laughing:

Oh, you’ve just made my day Froggy! Thank you very much indeed for posting! Never knew the French made such films as well, and by the look of it, there’s lots of it, seems I’ve got a busy weekend ahead of me… :wink:

Cheers Buzzer! Doesn’t always have to be the big stuff to be interesting :wink: any info on that trailer perchance?
