Some great photos in this thread, anyone remember a firm called M.E Andrews? Think they were based in the Marfleet area at one time.

If that’s a John Foreman wagon it would more than likely have worked out of BP Chemicals Saltend Hull. They were absorbed into the P and O group,hence the livery.John Foreman was working out of BP when I was in there,late 60s early 70s.
Hope this helps…

That would make sense my mum always said he worked for P&O and he once had a picture with a John foreman lorry which was green i think?? He died mid 80’s he was only retired a short period before he passed…
before he went into lorry’s he was a paratrooper and my gran actually got told he was KIA but a french lady had taken him in’ ended up back in Hull as a dispatch rider out of Paull then went onto wagons once the war was over…
I’d of loved to of met him

I’m sure they loaded at Cargill’s back then aswell but could be wrong
Not so much an old Hull haulage company but who remembers the old railway bridges on Hedon Road near the docks.
Notice the Atki getting the better of the Seddon.
