By the way Stellan I think the bridge is the origional Severn Crossing from England to Wales, dunno who owned the Scania though but it looks lovely…
I think JV is a Humberside registration,and as Autotransit used to ship a lot of trailers through Hull,I reckon it’s the Humber Bridge.
I have always believed that it has been a bridge in Gothenburg, and they had an English truck brought over here.
Take very good care of that, they don´t make such light boxes any more. I have one ASG light box and one very old light box from Bilspedition made of sheet metal in the early sixties, that hopefully will decorate a Ford Transcontinental sometime in the future

I´m really glad that I still can be here on the forum, and of course it will appear both Volvo and Scania from Sweden
But first I have a question. Does anyone know anything about the transport on this photo taken in 1977; it has a load of a giant 21 ton muffler from Sheffield via Aberdeen for an oil platform in the North Sea. The information that I have says that it´s 550 kilometer journey, so it must have been a very difficult transport…

Hi Stellan, I worked for this guy for a very short time ( before he had this wagon ) and it would not be to difficult as we took a lot of heavy stuff up to Aberdeen and beyond without any problems and it would be around 400 miles from Sheffield
cheers Johnnie

You should see it when I’ve got the lightning conductor up on the roof.
Bring the cadaver in here Igor!
Maybe one of those would be suitable for the transport of a cadaver? Three vehicles of 24 meter total length, and one 18-meter… I think your name for this kind of vehicles is drawbar?

How common was the “Bilspedition-green” color in the UK, I thought it was mostly the Scandinavian countries that used it. Here´s another magazine from Bilspedition published in 1970, with the original color on the F88…
