Silver Roadways, loads of backloads off them back in the day, many more than I saw of their wagons on the road, in fact in the early years I thought they were just a clearing house.

They were owned by Tate and Lyle of course, I’m guessing they were run as a seperate concern though?
In my early days as an owner driver Silver Roadways were one of the best for backloads and even work when you were short.
Paid well and even after 30 days IIRC
Robsons only operated from one traffic office----- Carlisle ! But they used agents up and down the UK and in particular they were well involved with Silver Roadways particularly in Liverpool . Cheers Dennis.
