BuzzerAmazing that neither one the half windscreens were broked in the crash!
Like Irn-Bru our glass is made from “girders” 
Must have been some job handballing the load on to the other wagon though.
Buzzer:
Dont know where but someone will, Buzzer
Buzzer,sure I read it was Boroughbridge,no more details mate.
It is indeed the old A1 through Boroughbridge. The old bridge collapsed, dropping one of Pickford’s Diamond T tractors and the load into the River Ure. All were recovered, repaired and returned to service, apparently.

Certainly the end of the journey for this 1955 registered Berliet TLR 8, somewhere on one of France’s “Nationales”.

The NCB van was chuffed to bits…
The van bears a 1970 registration. Were steam locomotives still in regular operation at that date?

As late as 1982/83 we were delivering coal to a British Rail yard in Gateshead for a steam shunter that was still in regular use.
About the same time we used to collect stone blocks from two quarries in Northumberland that still used steam driven derrick cranes.
