Thank’s for the pic of Slaters headquarters Dean, that was how I remember it and the buildings were still standing the last time I went past. They were in the Tilling group at that time obviously and had two training vehicles, a short wheelbase 1968 reg Foden tilt cab eight wheeled tipper and a similar tractor unit and trailer which had the bonnet cut away to make three seats in the cab. We had the rigid as there were no artics on our fleet at that time, the non-driver perched on the bonnet with a board across the dash to stop their feet hitting the windscreen and there was no power steering but an hydraulic throttle which lost pressure occasionally so had to be ‘pumped up’ during the day. The tractor unit and trailer were booked out all week for two local farm lads but neither of them turned up so it stood idle all week! We lodged at Mrs Mook’s guest house on Scarborough Road in Pickering, most of the occupants were working on the North York Moors Railway as that was nearing the end of its restoration. Pickering in the Winter of 1976 was an exciting place to be… :unamused:

The ERF used to be owned by a good friend and ex workmate of mine Geoff Woodcock who is based in the Oldham area

Thanks Stansfield, great photo. They were a nice family owned business with good drivers, sadly no more.

Good morning lads,
While I love all trucks and there many combinations ( as that is how i made my living for many years ) I have this cold chill running up my back that you are about to be told off and refered to some other site that deals with heavy haulage “and the occasional bus”.
For me, load um up, the more wheels the better, great thread and pic’s Harvey

Have to agree with you Harvey, this thread was really intended for Paul Gee’s collection and comments and as superb as it is it now seems to be wandering of piste a bit and some of the posts on here are for other threads On TNUK having said that I look at a lot of threads on this forum and therefore get the overall haulage scene past and present, personally I try and post relevant pictures and comments in the right category so lets hope others will follow suit, cheers Buzzer.

To all the +1s and the rolly eye brigade, I’ve moved the ‘offending’ posts. :smiley:

Rolly eyes and +1s aren’t very helpful because they don’t benefit anybody, so here’s some back at ya!! :unamused: :unamused: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
That’s because I then had to move the quoted posts too. :frowning:

:bulb: If you’d have used the ‘report’ button, it would have got it dealt with far quicker. :wink:

For those interested, the heavy haulage posts have been moved to the… heavy haulage topic.

The others are in the topic called “Past Present and in Between in Pictures”

The posts will appear in time/date order within the topic that they’ve been moved to, so they won’t necessarily be just tacked on the end.

Hi Dieseldave,
You are a gent for being nice about it, I for one will be looking at your site and contributing what I can.
Yes, +1 and Rolly eyes were, in my opinion a little rude and you are the better man for the way you handled it, thank you.

A03736p.JPG Nice shot of the Hoveringham Leyland Octopus Dean.
Here’s a couple more of their motors.

Bottom two are Dene quarry trucks, Cromford market place and the little layby at Stonedge on the road avoiding Slack Hill.

Still waiting for a Taylors of martley…oh no, here comes a rolling eyes emoji…[emoji57]
Given in my taylors days we used to do a lot of South Wales from Worcester I’m surprised there aren’t any given our prolific truck photographer took A LOT of photos around Ross on wye.
