Talking with the driver who told me this was its 1st day out today.



Leyland DAF 75 - (P804JWL):

Still earning its keep, Regards Larry.

As some of you will know,I only drive with tautliners as a rule.
So this was something very different for me.

Couldn’t tip it (no hydraulic system on my truck), only drag it…


Spotted up Mt Etna. Old Fiat?

Not my photos so if asked by the owner I will take them down.


My old dad under the hopper at Hall Aggregates gravel pit Blackfield.

Here’s my new Scania XT 410 Tipper. Ive driven a few Scania’s over the last 30 years but never had one as “my truck” I’ve had this a couple of weeks and must admit I love it. My Volvo FMX was a great truck but this new generation Scania is light years ahead.

Hall Aggregates Winall workshop, Winchester back in the day.

Sadley no longer trading, Regards Larry.

I saw this last week on my travels and was wondering if this is a commercial trailer or a farm trailer

I seem to remember something similar on tarmac ?

Well its very much like a Dempster Dumpster Model :question: :question: :question: , Regards Larry.
