Leyland600:
Tyneside, I can vaguely remember the local fairground family setting up hee in Wigton with two very similar multi wheel wagons which I am almost certain were Armstrong Saurers, I was too young then to know what they were but the large radiators and the word Armstrong seems to be the answer. Next time I see one of the family with whom I am acquainted I will ask him if his father or grandfather ran them.
Cheers, Leyland 600.
About 1961 I have a recollection of someone my Dad knew (canât remember who) rocking up to our yard with an Armstrong Siddeley car. I have no idea how old it was but it was a good looking machine.

Still there on the Fossway, built in the late sixties I think. Tyneside
Parsons were a big part of the group that owned W.H.Allen in Bedford, NEI. I used to run in there either on the way home from Scotland or if Iâd been up the north east to see if they had anything to take back, was also useful for a cheap dinner in the canteen and killing a bit of time if I needed it allowing me to get to my favourite night out of Whitley Bay.
