Nice ones Danne!

It was a blooming good job that the Leyland Comet was under that bridge when it collapsed, those keystones could have fallen onto the road and hurt someone. Right place, right time!:shock: :laughing:

Pete.

I bet it buggered his insurance premiums that was an original roman arch . Just goes to show that it’s not just modern steering wheel attendants that can hit bridges .

Ok which would you chose

Hi Buzzer the UKAEA ERF has been restored by a someone who works at Sellafield whom I know, this ERF and another 3 or 4 used to pass alang the A595 about a mile from my home enroute from Chapelcross Nuclear Power Station to Sellafield and reverse hauling 75 ton nuclear flasks. They ran at about 25 mph and were a complete pain to get behind on ths busy road. A superb restoration by John Thomas.
Cheers, Leyland 600.

Thanks to Dirty Dan, Buzzer and lurpak for the pics :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:
The Comet holding up the Newport Arch, Ballgate, Lincoln 1964, again hit by a lorry 2004 and for good measure a double decker also attempting top deck removal at sometime.
