The name in another thread just jogged my memory. Been seeing more and more of these trucks lately. They are very well painted/wrapped and look great. Have they just set up last year or so. Or just expanded.
I heard been running for a couple years now , I thought they were a new outfit that just popped up from nowhere lol, apparently the top dog is ex bbc radio/to presenter or something along those lines , not 100% sure though as I have never worked there or know anyone who does
Dont think its the same Mark Thompson as the BBC bloke
bin goin quite a few years tidy tackle seems to have his head screwed on
got some interesting times ahead
smart looking vehicles
Going to struggle now I think - with the loss of City Link, they had a few in there each night.
They do container work too, not sure what else though tbh
Done lots of work for city link !!! Wounded how safe they are now if they have not been payed from city link ? One goes down normally take another 2 or 3 with them
They do some work for DX as well
They do the haulage out of Ectona Workington West ■■■■■■■

I do love the driver rumour mill. Mark Thompson, the man who tried to shut down 6 Music, has one of the highest profile jobs in media, CEO of the New York Times. So I doubt he has the time to be running a small transport company

Oh well lol , like I said wasn’t 100% sure about it , I’m sure it was another thread on here where I read it lol , maybe I should of knew better lmao
Another company with very generous speed limiters
Emersons have a 11 plate Mercedes Ex Mark Thompsons, 2 years old when they got it March 2013.
The mileage on it suggests it was worked hard!!
And even if he did own the company i doubt he’d have his own trucks. He was known for outsourcing rather then keep it in house.

Sounds like a bit jealousy there tango boy
Ive seen em pulling all links, flats, tauts, boxes, and from my own eyes little CIty Link in comparison.
Units dont look too old so poss on recurring lease to save a hit in his own pocket?
