An old Toft Bros and Tomlinson lorry from Darley Dale, it still has the logo on the cab after being taken over by BRS.
I started my driving career with TB&T. I think they ceased trading around 1974.

0That one windscreen wiper, those mirrors, the “headlights” and no indicators…wow…
I can remember working on lorries like these back in the 60’ s the Dennis Max springs to mind, very similar to that one…and now, 60 years on…
The good old days ■■?. BRS 1950 ish usually fixed starting handle , one wiper, no n/s mirror ,1 headlight n/s fixed for kerbs , o/s headlight to dip for oncoming traffic , no spot light. ropes stored in cab along wth own tools,spare injector pipes and olives etc , 20 mph plate on rear , the lorries then were well worn out from the War period , Transport offices usually run by competant ex drivers -with dirty boots !------- toshboy
