I’ve found yet another old (digital) shoe box…
Is that a Scammell in the 1st pick, with the outrageous sticky out nose crossing the level crossing? I wonder how they arrived at that idea, there are other examples, but not many.

When I got my new DAF on Econofreight, as they were all supplied by the NE dealer I had to take it back to Thornaby depot for each service. An overnight job, they offered me a Contractor to sleep in. Didn’t realise it was a sleeper version of a Leyland Redline cab though.
