Ah yes! That picture was taken by the Dutch photo-journalist Niels Jansen. Interestingly, it is seen pulling a trailer of an unrelated company with the same surname. Robert

Leyland 600, plenty of room this week everthing is shut, there was a couple of 17 tonners unloading one looked like he had more drops than Santa lol

Ade

[leyland600]

Hi Ade, If thats the case even with a lot of drops it will make the drivers day, at least it would have made a change from the usual parking hassle.
Cheers, Leyland 600.

When the F90 (and then F2000) cabs came along, MAN built the Commander and Roadhaus high cabs, but before that the old F8 cab was a flat top. But there were some rare conversions, some of them quite pleasing. I’ve just unearthed three. Robert
