Atchison Topeka was owned & operated by the chap who previously owned Santa Fe Express - which was bought by Wincanton in the early 90's - a bit of a cowboy & western theme happening...

They were regularly in Birds Eye / Walls ice cream at Gloucester with tankers in the late 90's - I used to load export ice cream out of there.

Cheers all,

Keith

I'm almost certain Edmonds Transport were from Norfolk,ran some Ford Transcontinentals.

There was an Edmunds Transport from Norfolk / Linconlshire way- but I'm not sure if the Daf would be one of theirs.
They were white with light green & red stripes, and we're still running B Series ERF's into the late 90's on fridge work.
They were bought by Fullers of Slough somewhere round about 2000 ish.

Cheers, Keith
