Saw a brand new unliveried silver Actross pulling a Stobart trailer yesterday and just wondered if any other companies pull them?Marshalls Landscapes are trialling a silver Actros at the moment. They do traction work for Stobarts over the Christmas period as the building work dries up. Their TM, Mick Stevens is an ex-Stobart boss, so he sorts it through that.
And yes, I used to do traction work for Stobarts 2 years ago. Here’s a picture of the old girl showing Stobarts how the job is done.
0Bloody hell!!! An ex Brockies motor. It must be the one that got away, as they normally run them until they drop. Is that X651 NBT?
I was talking to Mick Stevens on Monday at Maltby. Like I said, keep watching.
The silver Cactros is currently running out of Halifax, as I was stood next to it late on Monday after speaking to Mick.

Yes, indeed it was ex Brocklehurst! I think the registration was X652 NBT! I tell you something though, even though it was 10 years old when we got it, we still didn’t manage to kill her. The old girl was hauling at 44 ton for months before she went for export. The fact it only required a starter motor, and a fuel lift pump would suggest it was a bargain at £2.5k on eBay!
