Hi,
Does anyone have any shots of older TNT trucks?
I started on the old Cargos, then my first truck was a Turbostar in the early 90s and Id love to see what pictures you have!
Thanks

How far back do you want to go, TNT Milton 021, early 90’s
I drove that lorry when it was new, did TNT buy it when it was 3yrs old ex. rental ?

Yes that’s who owned it when we had it on long time hire on BRS, I only carried Jag/Rover/ Triumph car spares on a 40 footer (8t at the most !), it was a real flyer just carrying that weight but even then the brakes were a bit scary. I loved it and I have to say it was very comfortable.I later had a TL12 mk 2 but it wasn’t a patch on the ■■■■■■■ motor.

I used to work for TNT Transport Systems, Clayton Le Moors, Accrington, back in the early 90’s and here’s one of the iveco’s I had for a bit and on this occasion I delivered a trailer to the TNT depot at Horncastle.
