Marvellous photo of AJ plants MAN in Rhayader. I remember Alan running a Leyland Marathon and a Breg MAN along with various D series tippers. Alan is now in his 70’s and still going.Proper old school! Don’t suppose you’ve any photos of MEJ transport of Aberystwyth? They only ran for a few years during the early 80’s .

Dai ,hello, sorry to say i do not have any pics of MEJ Transport,.What sort of fleet did they have ? This is Chetwynd ,think they were from the Aberystwyth area , thanks cc .](Screen capture tool for Windows — Postimages)
I asked a dear mate who lives near Aberystwyth about MEJ transport and got the full history . Meirion Ellis Jones ran the Meirion Motors garages in Aberystwyth and Cardigan until 1979-80 when he sold out to Charles Clarck. Meirion then ran around half a dozen artics mainly on bulk tipper work although some continental work was done as well.He ran a few B series ERF’s, a Roadtrain,SA 400 and one of the first MAN’s in the area. He took the garages back over around 1982 and the fleet got dispersed . My mate is 99% certain that the Leyland went to Mansel Davies and the Seddon carried livestock for many years for Richard Mathews Aberystwyth . As for Ron Cheteynd (of Mydroilyn Aberaeron) you didn’t want to get stuck behind one of his wagons going over Plynlimon on a hot day 'cos they didn’t 'arf honk!

Bill,yes there was a tannery at Tanygroes, Chetwynd ended up with it. It was just a stones throw off the main road.
