As promised a pic of our workshop FM,
380 badges but unlike Cuprinol it does more than it says on the tin…chipped up to about 460 !
Heres one I saw in Liverpool, not an HGV but still a commercial vehicle…
That looks that good it must be in the shows, it can’t just be an everyday working wagon.
O4Goodnessake:
Not a great shot but here she is again.
She looks like a worker there.
Operating on Teesside moving containers from Teesport to Wilton Terminal for TDG there are at least three ballast tractors 2 ERF’s L and R reg and a Preg Foden. Why do they use ballast tractors ? higher gross weights ?
This year have been trying to snap everything I see over 15 year old as I work on Teesside thers quite a bit of stuff about but its usually going the opposite way on the A66! 
Old stuff seems to be mainly ERF’s , Fodens and Leyland Dafs .
This will be the last decade when British trucks are still a common sight

Thankyou for the photos and Welcome to the forum JCB 3C 
Thanks Lycanthorpe , some good photos on this thread , usually this type of topic gets flooded with fairground wagons which are interesting but not quite ‘working’ wagons to me.
Talking with the chap who owns this (today) and he was telling me he’s still doing work out of the quarries in Buxton on a daily basis.I spotted him parked up in the Oldham area.
I am just back from Norway: you can still see plenty of that bonnetted scanias still at work. And as for the scania bus on the front - well, they are very popular there as campers 
Saw today in Edinburgh an A plated Dodge recovery vehicle. Did not managed to take the picture, but it seems that it’s not their only old vehicle:
Ah, and there is that old lady I seen in Czech Republic two months ago.
It looks unused, but it was gone next day after I took that pic:
Got talking to the old guy driving this last week, hed had it from new in 1976 and was still running on long haul work out here with it. Hed extended the sleeper with another cab for a bit more living space, it sounded lovely as i crept passsed him at 75 mph 
She is nice,and with your penchant for cab-overs I’d imagine you almost ran out of Kleenex when you saw her ,but can you imagine running and living in a truck that’s 35 yrs old compared to the new stuff ?

spot on these pics can we have some more? as old trucks still working are of far more interest to me than blinged up new
and i am always interested to see trucks from over the pond anyway!
keep up the good work moose
I did not managed to make a picture, but I saw a Sisu truck, I would say from mid-80s doing some heavy haulage in France. I was surprised, I though they were rather a rarity outside Scandinavia… It was on French plates.
