Long Departed Southampton Hauliers (Part 1)

Hi All hey Tony you must have taken that picture on that bend that’s in my last pic (top left )that Pats put on .

Regards Jimmer

I think you,re right Jimmer…I,m sure I took that photo while the road was still under construction
as were yours by the look of it. Still two way traffic.
Looks like you had a better camera than me as well…I always was a cheapskate. :smiley: :smiley:

Buzzer…he who dares mate, he who dares. Seriously though I wouldn’t,t have wanted to taken a flying
leap off of that one.

Ainacs…hi Pat, I remember seeing a few wrecks at the bottom over the years.
Must have been an awful experience and terrible way to go.

Hi all, not been on much lately…I,ve come across this old photo I,m pretty sure I,ve not
put on before. Not the best quality pic, but who knows where I took it ■■?

Hi Mappo… nice to see you back. Hope all good with you.
I recognised that place straight away… My first trip that way( for PBC in a Berliet…) I arrived there , wi nae a clue laddie as they say … I wnt up to an O Oners volvo and tapped his door. He wound down the window and I asked what the procedure was. He said . " I had to learn mate. Now it’s yourturn " then wound the window up. What a nice bloke!

The last time I was there was in about 2009 on a trip in my old vdub camper… the road hasnt changed …I parked at the lake and wondered how the hell we got up and down with old style braking systems etc…

I remembered a trip when I tipped in Lyon for Uncle John and he said to go to Italy via Cenise, circa 94 before the weight limit… Was a breeze in the FH 12…

Take it easy mate… Balders.

ainacs:
Found this pic of a Lambert Bros F88 Volvo NEL 728P (I think)with a tandem flat trailer.

Regards Pat… I remember that Volvo very well! It arrived in the yard , '76 I guess and was given to a very nice fella called Alan ( his surname escapes me) . A million miles away from the rest of the fleet , all Atkis. Power steering too ( and a night heater) unbelievable luxury for the time…
I don’t think they bought any more though? Think they went with Sed Aks… Probably a cost thing… Cheers , Balders.

Good luck with yours !!
