No gates on those hay bales, that’s unusual isn’t it, Dig?

You wouldn’t fit gates on there- the bales are right up to edge of the trailer. Quite often loads of straw have to run as ‘Oversize’ just for being an inch or two over the outline of the trailer .
Cheers, Keith

Just that it looks a bit naked that’s all, for an Aussie flat. 
Yes Buzzer, straps and ropes, I don’t for a minute suggest it isn’t safe.

I agree Keith the large bales certainly but the anomaly of road transport and hay for livestock the rules become cloudy.
I recall a trip some years ago with an oversize road train Perth to Darwin at the last moment before starting my transit route was changed due to Cyclonic activity in the north of WA now my load on one trailer a drop deck was a subsea template that was overheight was legal in WA and the NT but because of the plan change I would have to travel through part of South Aus and I was illegal in that state but when I did some checking bales of hay could travel at the same height as my own freight with no problem.

Hi John, Thank you for the Robert Baillie ERF picture. From memory, I think that driver John Porter
from Horndean was the driver of this artic unit. I have always thought that this picture has been
doctored, because by the time that Baillies got into 40 footers and later into curtainsided trailers,
the company had moved to Rowlands Castle Road at Horndean, the signwriting on the trailer curtains
showed " Horndean " rather than " Portsmouth " . Cheers, Ray Smyth.
Thanks to robthedog, Buzzer, coomsey and lurpak for the photos

Thanks Oily ,there are a fair amount of loads of hay each year carted at no cost to drought stricken farmers around the country each year, this pic was of multiple loads heading from the eastern states to West Oz.

Just found this one on my usual French forum. I reckon NSW stands for New South Wales, the dry climate of which would explain its very good condition.
Subsidiary question: until when were solid rubber tyres allowed in Britain (in France 1951)? Thanks!
Nice pictures Buzzer.I remember J H Moore,they were from Pump Lane Hayes,along with Annis who ran some real owd tackle.
Look like Framptons copied their livery off ICI.
Love the KM tipper, the name of the makers, or originators of that chassis-less style escapes me for the moment but I believe they also made car carriers (Oily?).
More stable than they looked they also had an added (accidental?) advantage. If you were stuck in mud, raising and lowering repeatedly with judicious setting and releasing of the brakes, trailer and unit alternately, ‘walked’ you out of the mire.

We seem to be getting a lot of photo’s now crossed over from another site and probably visa-versa, all those above I’ve just looked at on the British lorry nostalgia site, which also posts a lot of Peter Davies brilliant photo’s without any acknowledgment to him, something he’s not entirely happy with. Franky.
