Hi Chris,
Nash Rocks haven’t had anything in their colours for about ten years or possibly more.All the lorries up here have been in Tarmac colours since Anglo American took the quarries over.Don’t know whose lorry you saw at Pencraig,can’t remember anyone running a Transconti up this way.
Cheers Dave.

Mystery motor to me, Dave – any idea who it belongs to?
Taken today outside Kington

Don’t know either Steve.Looks like a Farmers hay & straw wagon to me with the front of the trailer.
Cheers Dave.


One of S J Holder’s artics,seen on the A438 near Hereford.

Pictured on here several times - Dave Morris in his working Leyland Constructor

A bit too shadowy for my liking but it’s always good to have pictures of this one

Is that in his home village Steve ?

Certainly is Dave - the buildings are a dead giveaway -

This shot was taken in a bit of a hurry - you know how busy the road is and I had just nearly been flattened by David Edwards in his Scania…

That village is badly in need of a bypass Steve,can’t see it ever happening.Eardisley is the same narrow with black and white houses with a lot of heavy stuff passing through.
Cheers Dave.
