Thanks for that Dean and yes you guessed right. :smiley:

Seddon Atkinson 4-11 4x2 tractor unit Reg No E80 HFV Fleet No 99 ‘Hercules’ is pictured parked up on the M6 Forton Service area in Lancashire as driver Ted Sandham takes a break.

Coupled to a 40 foot step frame curtain-sider trailer E80 HFV was originally out based at the Timax plant on Glasson Dock near Lancaster were it was driven on days by local man Ted Sandham.

Ted did three trips to Squires Gate on days, with manufactured products, while on nights it was driven by Fred Hurd who did a Falkirk trailer swap.

I would suggest that the white DAF pulling the Bowker trailer would be a full time subby rather than a Bowker owned vehicle, they had quite a few in the 80s and 90s on general.

Absolutely correct: the only London-based traction subby in that period. The gentleman in question was Terry Meares from Sidcup, and he used to do a daily changeover at Crick with a Blackburn day man, and then go down to tip Sainsbury’s at Charlton at 0130 each week night for Heinz.

We had a few subbies on U.K. traction in Lancashire in the 1980s but it had died out by the early 90s as the U.K. fleet was increased.

There were still some subbies on traction for the International operation, but that was run in parallel with a a separate traffic office

I’d guess it’s a factory demo motor, wit its Preston reg

The trailer looks like one of the kneeling transporters - I used a very similar one once, and which belonged to Leyland Tr*cks
