Does anyone have photos or memories of scrap or coke hauliers from Lothian and Borders? Caledon of Broxburn, Pearson of Duns, Gold of Greenlaw, Dalton of Gogarburn etc. etc.

No pics,but add Bruce Lindsay to the list although I suppose he was more of a distributor.Did Derek Bertram haul coal back after taking clay down?
Waugh of Edinburgh.Bernard Hunter,Edinburgh.Most scrap I see in artics is Laurie of Aberdeen and a mob from Boness but cant remember the name.
If we extend to take in Fife,Tom Muir of Kirkcaldy for scrap although that company seems to be disappearing fast,R&M Supplies of Inverkeithing and there`s Walter Stewart and Sons of East Wemyss who have a very smart fleet.

Bruce Lindsay Waldey were coal merchants with a depot in Edinburgh they were part of Bruce Lindsay Brothers, I’m not too sure if they still have a depot in Edinburgh I believe that they are now based in the Highlands. Bernard Hunter is a scrap metal merchant and crane hirer based in Edinburgh.

The mob from Bo’ness is Derek Heeps and McLucas and I think Stewarts of Bo’ness also run scrap although they are mostly livestock.
As this is an Old Timers page,Smith of Maddiston commenced trading in 1931,hauling coal,no pictures of any original trucks[and non of the elusive Big J 8LXB either!!!]
