Came across this photo some time ago, I’ve lived in kempston all my life but have never heard or seen anything of this company before seeing this photo, don’t know if anyone else knows anything about them?

Is this the same E J Masters based now at King Langley , big AEC user in the 70’s then Marathon’s, green iirc. Still going I think.

Thanks for the name “Dieseldog66” :wink:

DEANB:
We have had a few Volvo F6’s on here. They were a cracking motor in my opinion. Very comfortable and
reliable. I remember talking to the transport manager at Pickford’s Old Trafford and they had run loads
of these. However they decided to buy Ford Iveco’s due to how much cheaper they were ! In his words a
big mistake,he reckoned they cost twice as much to keep on the road with repairs and breakdowns ! :unamused:

an ex fire engine ? :unamused:

Cheers Harvey for the name. I seem to remember reading that possibly one of these cars or a car similar was
still being made until fairly recently in India. :laughing:
