[adrian_gray]

Hi All, Here are some more photos of the truck with some random other lorries pictures as well.

Off loading in Paris.

Having a rest…

Liked this one…Nice looking Scania…Stood out from the crowd

Parked up.

This is parked next to the gateway at the train in Navarro…by the looks of it he missed his train along time ago ha ha.

Loading dock at Navarro.

And the toilets…Good job it’s not smelly vision…

Taken out of the window on our journey.

Here’s Ian from Rush Trans of Boston.

And here’s me having a much deserved beer…

And that’s it for now. Should have some more shortly…

these low life tricks is totally beyond me.and we all wonder why us lorry drivers have such a bad reputation.if i found anyone doing that,they would certainly receive a hiding

Excellent pics adrian, cheers. I’m just lovin that motor of yours. Still undecided on the lightbar though.

Just spotted the 2 different exhausts on your truck.

Why’s that then?

Ken.

I love the truck and its mint condition, the light bar doesnt do it justice though. Sorry.

Those toilets a la turque are a practised art ■■■■■■■■ you either hit the hole, the wall, or the back of your trousers.

Dont know for sure, but at a guess i’d say ones a blower and ones a sucker…(1 Exhaust, 1 Air Intake). Tell tale signs on the trailer are there dirty marks from Exhaust soot both sides??

Just my opinion anyway,.

When you drive on the train Josh, you have to chock the wheels yourself and then walk back to the passenger carriage to bag a bunk while carrying all your sleeping gear, beer and food. They then recouple the train and the carriage. The train does not have priority through Swiss so it is forever stop start and being shunted into sidings.

You must check that you get in the correct carriage as it has been known for a driver to wake up in Novara when his truck is in Milan

Easy done, isn’t it Peter?

I am pretty sure that i saw that volvo parked up at a yard that i drove past last night on my way out.

Hi All, just thought that I would let you know about the exhausts, yes one is a sucker and one is a blower. The driver’s side one is the air intake and the passenger’s side one is the blower. On a recent visit to Eminox I have discovered that they do not do this system anymore and some of the staff there had never even seen one, so it ended up being an educational trip. Hopefully, soon, work permitting it will be back at Eminox having the other pipe lengthened to match.
