Hi RTD did the company below evolve from Marsh’s or the other way round summit rings a bell here or am I barking, Buzzer
John,
Bob Marsh later went on to become roteam so yes you are right
I would assume that MMD Merc had been driven like that due to trade plate being on the grille!

my dads lorry Tony Stevens YGK473G down at Ready mix Fareham plant mid 70s.with a few of the drivers the yard was owned by Lucketts of fareham next door
hi all, truckworld i drove the loading shovel in that yard around 1972 before going to drive for Lucketts. Sid Minns was the batcher then, he had a accident got run over i think ended up with a pin in his leg and a really bad limp. a nice bloke but a bit short tempered.

The best boss i ever had Mick Ansell he new the haulage industry inside out.
That is a great comment about Mick Ansell. I first met Mick early in 1970, around the time that I started at
Robert Baillie & Co Ltd, I was based at their Wigan depot, and Baillies had just taken over Percy Powell Ltd
and started to occupy the depot at Rowlands Castle Road at Horndean. I still speak to Mick occasionally.
Cheers, Ray Smyth.
Eagleway DAF.
