Thanks for that “OC”,as I’m not very well versed on Scammells I did think however that the Highwayman only used the Meadows,Gardner and Leyland 680 engines but as Jaques had a depot in Watford I thought maybe that Scammell had fitted a ■■■■■■■ engine for test purposes maybe !! But it was just “badge engineering” by the driver !! Cheers Bewick.
