Hi Paul,one of ridings motors looking a bit sorrySeddon Atkinson 401 Series 4x2 tractor unit Reg No C50 OBV Fleet No 72 ‘Vulcan’ was powered by a Gardner 6LYT 16 litre 320 engine.
Registered new on the 1st of June 1986 at a cost of £27,468 plus vat it was driven from new by Alan Bretherton.
The picture above shows it at Longridge after being recovered following an accident coming out of Edinburgh when it went off the road into a ditch.
The damage included a badly bent chassis resulting in the vehicle being totally written off and scrapped.
Fortunately the Gardner 6LYT 320 engine was saved and later transferred into Seddon Atkinson 401 Series tractor unit Reg No D400 SRN.How did the 320 Gardners perform in the Riding fleet were they well regarded ?
Lowe of Paddock Wood ERF 6x4 E16 with Gardner 6LYT acquired by Turners in August 1996 when they bought Lowe’s transport division. There were two of these and IIRC they had Eaton twin-splitter gearboxes. We didn’t keep them for any length of time at Turners.
Dean, the palletways daf of K transport is now part of Gregory distribution, and dont you think its time Mayflowers scania got out of that layby on the other carrigeway!!!

It might have been stretched, thinking if it had been the prototype it would be ok to use as a main dealer recovery vehicle? Where is that ROF when you need him?!I’m here, Pete. I would think that the thing is almost certainly built on a tipper chassis, although it would probably have been wise to re-engine it. I’m ashamed to reveal that I have little real knowledge of Big Js other than a) I was- and still am, given that the memory cell holds up-pretty clued up about the 205 ■■■■■■■ version that was supplied to BRS and b) I know that there were 240 Gardner versions built at Fallings Park despite what the over-pensioned road transport magnate from ■■■■■■■ would have.
Thanks for your comments Pete & ROF.

My Dad was mad about those 16 litre things ,we used to meet a bloke from up Oldham way drove a liquid tank for I think nexus ,the Erf E16 was green with the juggling balls logo ? Tom I think his name was ,It sheared a fare few spigot shafts , I’ve never met anyone including Gardner fans with a good word to say about the lyt ,can’t see them being that good a match for twin splitter as they don’t exactly shut down quick ,however I do like to see and hear them on the show scene .

Hi Dan,
A mate from the Forest Of Dean on the truck show circuit,Adrian Reed owns this Foden.Has an LY 16 litre Gardner fitted.A coach driver friend of mine drove an LY powered Neoplan for Rapide.Thats all I can say tbh,Sorry I am not the biggest Gardner fan.Though I did admire the longevity of some of their engines.
Regards Andrew.
