Hi Dave, yes the green light was for rescue and fitted because a lorry broke down, before motorways and mobile phones and other B D A lorries just went by in the dark not knowing it was one of there own, or so the tale is told, good place to work back in the day. Les.

Hell Les where did you find those , the last one is the photo my grandad had on his wall there was a story behind it (not the wall the photo) but i can’t remember . My dad would have loved to have seen those , the OAK 879 rings a bell but i’m not sure why , hope i’m not coming down with something
Les there’s a couple of photos of Tillotsons on Preston St in the latest Vintage Roadscene magazine .I think they date from 1959 but there’s a few AECs outside one being an A One Mercury
Photo taken at the Conditioning House, Bradford, who’s is the 8 wheeler, may be a big ask not many Bradford wool men left. Les.
