C901LNL? A little before my driveing days! Dont recognise where that is…Teesport maybe?? I used to do weekend work down there but never in an F7!! I used to have hundreds of pictures of the fleet but unfortunately my ex wife through them out :cry:

I think your right gurty as the wings and part of the doors are channel green and they were only on the B/C reg F7’s and because the number plate is high on the grill its got to be C901LNL possibly Tony Cooper driving it ■■ KG3

Thanks for putting up Ian Keith’s name Jim, I have wracked my brain for it, although I did recognise his face the name was gone. regards Kev.

thats an age thing kev, its like when you leave your wallet at home all the time :laughing:

regards mark

Well lads I new him straight away, I chatted to him about the old days running out of House of Mayfair at Cramlington , of course its changed its name several times over the years, Toby & his old gaffer Edgar [RIP] did quite a bit of work out of there, Edgar had a 6wheeler flat as did Toby Daf/Scania ?. Toby was a good servant to the Ridley Haulage Co., It was nice to see him after all these years gone by.Regards Larry & Nigel.

What is the Location of this Shot. Regards Larry
