Firms you spot for no particular reason

I’ve just started noticing a small firm called TJ Robins. I’ve never noticed them before, but seen 3 of their wagons in my last 2 shifts. Tidy white motors with flatbeds and cranes.

There use to be (maybe still going) a company from Liverpool with black & white trucks/trailers, can’t remember their name, Scania’s iirc, always immaculate, no matter the weather, really stood out whenever they passed.

That’ll be thornburns sadly no longer around

Yep, they’re the one’s.

They could play a bit part in the running bent in the 80s thread! If I remember rightly they lost their licence multiple times before they shut for good

If they had made carry fast transport manager they would have been ok

Moreton Cullimore. Old fashioned livery.
Waberers. I see them and expect chaos.
CM Downton. I wonder if the drivers’ on his way home or job seeking.
Heygates. Distinctive livery, and well worked is the polite way of describing them.

This one for me

Prestons of Potto always stood out to me and Bugle transport.

Bumble Hole Foods. :laughing:

I always notice Preston’s for their red & yellow Scania’s - shame about the white renaults

Jack Richards - another smart distinctive fleet

I always notice ‘Proctors’

And I usually yell ‘PROCTERRRRR!’ at them in the style of Captain Harris off of Police Academy.

Because I’m a very silly person.

I used to work for this crowd and for all their faults I reckon their FMXs look very nice.

Slightly different but reg plates that start with MX, not sure why and there seems to be loads

MX London (South-East) (Middlesex before 1965)

That’ll be why I see so many in the south east then! Cheers for that.

I also notice Horseshoe Distribution here and there, always seems like such a niche market.

I like to look out for m way and sons, d and g noble and H E PAYNE. All running what looks like good Kit and looks like it’s well looked after by the drivers which is always good to see!

What I like about that fleet, is they use tasteful dealer spec extras, and with the right paint it’s a less is more look. Better than ram raiding cdc

For some reason Davidson Wilson from Aberdeen always catch my eye when I see them,
They have a plain fleet but think they look nice in the navy blue with the G&A trailers
Also mclanachan of Kilsyth run a really nice fleet too

Definitely one of my favourites, another one which is not too over the top …
