Bang on cc !!! , excellent shot , looks like Clyro to me . I think that Transcon was based at Mydriolyn on the Cards /Pembs border .
By the way my birthday happens to be next month . How about a Issac Caswell Transcon ? regards Keith .

Keith Hi , Nobody in S Wales had Transcons quite like Roy Caswell, cc.

cc and Keith …impressive set of Transcons … Now what a shame a Caswell example has not had the preservation treatment …rightly so the finest in S Wales … along with his F88 Volvos i remember as a kid …!
Speaking of which kid as somebody stated …good to see you post up current S Wales stuff …those Monex shots went down a stormer …by the way Tony asks after you 11111 …G&K .

Hi cc thanks for the Caswell Transcon , on the whole a sad loss1 Avery fine fleet , i note that the former Cooper filter works is now twee houses .
Having spoken to a few people and taking into account your vast collection of pics , why can you not put a pic up on a daily basis ? I am sure quite a few members would be in agreement! regards Keith

This Hicks shot has brought back memories to my father …he can remember from -Newport …Hawthorn Transport …an ERF fleet in a blue livery .
He adds that Hicks did a lot of vegatable traffic especially tomatoes from a market garden up in Shropshire …can any one throw any light regarding Hawthorn transport ? …Geraint .

Hi Geraint , thats a few years ago ! Hawthorn were based on the docks in Newport and did alot of paper for Monmouthshire board mills , too based on the docks at that time , they had a similar factory at Abercarn i think . As well as ERFs they also had Thames Traders , and had drivers based on the A49 around Leominster and Ludlow ,maybe Dave the Renegade will remember them up that way ! regards Keith .
