Nice set of memories there Larry. 
The first picture was quite a common sight a long time ago, an 8 legger with a bogie for abnormal loads. Big trailers were available, so was it just a cheap way of hauliers to spread their availability for different classes of operation?
The 2nd one of McKelvie’s reminds me of a mate on Ilkeston Haulage who fell asleep waiting for the lights to change in Penrith. The McKelvie driver behind him ran forward, opened his door and punched him on the shoulder, than ran away before the sleeper was able to retaliate and drove round him to continue south. 
But they, along with Strathclydes bring back other memories too, both were frequent re-fuelling stops for us on Midland Storage. Bought my first set of chains and sylvesters from Mac’s as well. 
We weren’t supplied with them even though we did a lot of tramping and, of course in those handballing days, were always keen to find steel or timber loads. 
Is the last one a Himalayan?
