DEANB:

m.a.n rules:
dean, M I D stood for midland industrial deliveries and were based nuneaton area and the bloke who owned it was the biggest ■■■■■■ i have ever met… suffice to say the company never lasted long…

Classic,thanks for the info chap.

Ray Smyth:
Hi Dean, T.I. Automotive was one of many Tube Investment firms throughout the U.K.
This tall trailer would have carried stillages of silencers and exhaust pipes for the motor
industry. There was a large T.I. factory in Blackpool producing exhaust systems, but I
cant recall their name, I imagine Chris, 240 Gardner will have better Blackpool knowledge
than me. Other T.I. firms that I can remember were T.I. Raleigh Cycles, T.I. Creda Cookers,
T.I. Desford, T.I. Stainless, T.I. Weldless, T.I. Markland Scowcroft, T.I. England Tubes, the last
five companies were steel tube stockholders, all producing and supplying different types of tubes.

Cheers, Ray Smyth.

Thanks for the info Ray,good stuff chap.

Whites MAN chucking out some smoke with a Don Bush Routeman behind. Whites had a large gravel/sand quarry thats now a
large landfill between Wimborne & Poole.

Hello Dean all these pictrues are spot on again that shot of the whites Man eight wheel with the Don Bush Routeman tipper following behind sure is a stunner and a great catch too.PS I think Jobs had a dairy depot at Hanworth near Ealing area from 1920 to 1987 Currently Dairy Crest now Daz

Thanks for the info on Jobs dairy Daz.

Glad you like the Carefoot article and Mark never caught the Routeman behind the MAN.

But heres one we had earlier in the thread.

Hi dean

Yes loaded out of Shotton, and thanks for uploading the article on the works, I had’t seen it before. Interesting to read how the BSC motors did the local work (good drops) and external hauliers did the other work…no change there then! I see an Alf Parry BMC in the article, a firm who was working in there until the end, when all the independent hauliers had to 10% sub via TDG, which heralded the end for most including the firm I worked for, Shones.

I have put a picture of a Harris “legend” Alistair (aka Mayor of Mold, as he was once), who I believe only recently passed away, the A series ERFs had 240 Gardner’s in them I recall, and they had a yard just outside of the works alongside the A55, other guy in the cab is Gareth Peers aka young snicker

The weigh bridge shot brought back some memories, wonder how many others enjoyed the joys of “check weigh’s” when the tickets didn’t match the payload, so they sent you back to get the coils re weighed…deep joy! - oh the power of the weigh bridge boys!. There we some real characters so far as drivers, in the late 70’s and 80’s, you would not gat away with some of the stunts pulled today !!!

I will dig out some pics of the regular hauliers if any ones interested, I have loaded some onto the North Wales thread in the past.

Thought you might like that article “steelboyf10”,and thanks for the pics.

Any particular reason why Harris was a legend ■■ Pop the pics on chap as i may have something on the companies then again
i may not !

pete smith:
Hi Dean,
H W Pryce where from Wellington, sadly no longer in business

Thanks Pete !

pete smith:
Dean,
S B Waste are from Wolverhampton and have quite a large fleet of skips, hooks and artic ejector fleet. That Volvo is fitted with a Trent Industry body complete with an up and away tailgate.

I thought you would know that one Pete,good stuff chap.

240 Gardner:

Cheers, Ray Smyth.

You’re too kind, Ray, thank you. The name you’re looking for is TI Bainbridge, based at, I think, Squires Gate.

Their haulage was carried out for many years by Norman Billington, but Tom Riding stepped in when Billington’s business failed. There are a number of Bainbridge photos on Paul’s splendid Riding website, and here’s a cracking example:

Thanks for the info Chris.

Hi Dean

I love the blue AEC muck tipper back aways.It must have been taken on a Saturday morning with the driver wearing a white shirt and jacket and tie.Tip a couple of loads, swap the boots, then into the pub for a session!! Or perhaps he has a court appearance

A fair few driver’s used to wear a tie back then Tony.

jshepguis:
Still a cracking thread still Dean and thanks to you Paul and Mark for it’s continuation. Enjoyed the post about A Stevens as they were from village i lived in so knew all the drivers along the years. My uncle drove for them a few times and was given this F86 motor from new.

Later on used to do a few second man long load trips with my good friend Andrew Simpson who sadly passed away a few years now. This photo was taken at Michaelwood services with some 90 foot beams on the extendable pole trailers en route from BSC Lackenby to Carmarthen.

As the article says because Stevens specialized with steel out of the various steel factories that abounded on Teesside they had very few standard 40ft trailers so backloads were almost non existant. They did get from BSC a certain amount of a return rate, but rates as usual got squeezed and another family haulage concern called it a day.
Next photo loading out of BSC Malleable pipeworks in Stockton with a 60ft flat.

And another one this time a 40ft skeletal trailer, square wheel at Penrith bound for Glasgow.

Thanks for your comments “jshepguis” and thats a cracking post.

Love the pics of the early flat top F10 and the F86,good stuff chap.

I went through the archives and found a couple more bits about them that may intrest you.

“steelboyf10” Hi dean

The weigh bridge shot brought back some memories, wonder how many others enjoyed the joys of “check weigh’s” when the tickets didn’t match the payload, so they sent you back to get the coils re weighed…deep joy! - oh the power of the weigh bridge boys!. There we some real characters so far as drivers, in the late 70’s and 80’s, you would not gat away with some of the stunts pulled today !!!

Steelboy,I well remember the “power of the weighbridge boys” at BSC Shotton.We used to load crude benzene out of by-products plant there int 70s and I was just a tad over 32520kg or 32 tons in owd money.I chucked off all my hoses,tools,jack,wheelbrace and owt else I could get rid of to get under, which I just managed.It was a long way back to by-products and the plant men didn’t like the idea of pumping any off back into storage.

Thanks for the comments Chris. Unfortunately you find alot of muppets get power crazy once given a uniform or title !

HRS:
Ridgers transport were Poole way, father and son if I remember right.
Did a bit of trading round the dealerships. Harvey

I thought they were but Buzzer is right they are from Lymington. I am like you Harvey and use to see them in and around
Poole docks,Christopher Hills etc.

Buzzer:

HRS:
Ridgers transport were Poole way, father and son if I remember right.
Did a bit of trading round the dealerships. Harvey

Ridger’s transport were from Lymington where they also ran a garage, I worked alongside them out of Pompey on SCAC trailer traction they had two units working out of there for RH&D who were based in Poole but think they did traction out of there also for RH&D, Buzzer.

Your bang on Buzzer Found a couple of old one’s we had on before.

The DAF shown GEJ 436N was first owned by local haulier Bernie Dignan and was sold onto Ridgers Transport, whilst with Ridgers the DAF was written off at Charmouth or Chideok (cant recall which) whilst returning to Poole docks with a SIAF kangaroo trailer back in the early eighties.

Hiya Chris, Happy New Year ! Did you have to reach “an accommodation” with HMRC to let you back into England ? Talking of weighbridges ( which didn’t figure very highly at times when I were a Trailer Mate at Bradys) Anyhow I recall one trip to S.Wales when we had 5ton of Signode strapping spread between the Octopus and trailer for a 'lal steel works at Griffiths Town, the other 22ton was our usual load for The Abbey. Well we weighed in at 37 ton 'owd money, got it off then weighed out legal at 32 ton ! The 'Owd lad on the bridge stuck his head out the window and shouted "You Brady Boys want locking up " !!! Happy days All the best Dennis. PS how’s the weather in Thirsk ? a bit white I guess as we have had a covering in Kendal so that tells me a lot of other places are getting a [zb] load !!

pete smith:
Hi Dean,
The 301 is one of Brevitt’s based in Willenhall, I cannot remember this motor!
Morrisons acquired Safeway.
The Tarmac Constructor may have been supplied by Brownhills commercials, owned by Tarmac, as there was a couple of mixers based in Ettingshall with EA numbers.

Good stuff Pete,thanks for all the info chap.

Heres a clipping that mentions Brownhills from 1977.

Thanks for clarifying Pete ! Bet the driver was ■■■■■■■ him self when matey woke up !

I think the assessor wasn’t too impressed when the Foden started up the 1 in 8 crawl out of Ashbourne towards Derby and Pete got the flask out: “I always reckon to sup a mug full when going up here” and apparently got a stare from laddo in the passenger seat! “Well, you did say to drive normally” was Pete’s comment! He was a dry old bugger and liked by everyone, he talked very s-l-o-w but alas cancer did for him before retirement. He also did motorcycle tuition at weekends and rode one of the three pot Triumphs or BSA’s.

Pete.

That driver sounded a real character Pete,would have loved to have seen the assessor’s face when he pulled the flask out
and when he had woken up ! Classic.

Bought this pic of ebay,as part of a collection.

E & M.E Jackson ERF. Dont remember having one on before,anyone know where they were based ■■

With the aid of my glasses and a fair bit of squinting, looks like it says Chelford, Cheshire on the door and a bag has slipped off the pallet

Well done chap,thanks for that !

“DEANB” one of those very suspect Marina’s behind.

RMC Leyland Bison seen here in Westbourne,Bournemouth. No doubt from the depot on Poole docks.

Cheers Daz.

Dont remember having a Barlow Handling motor on before. Looks like it may be a fork lift carrier ?
Anyone know where they are from ?

Fantastic to see this, my Dad started for Barlow Handling as a forklift fitter, it then became just Barlow, then Barloworld, then bought out by Briggs Equipment.

The Leyland and MAN F2000 were based at the Portobello Road depot in Birtley, this eventually moved to the Follingsby Park estate up the A194, this has also now closed. The transport is now all done from other depots round the country,. Some photos I’ve found over the years below, would love to see any others:

Great post chap and thanks for the pics. Was that your dad driving the Seddon ■■

Will have a word with Paul and see if there are any more pics,but i dont remember seeing any.

No but he did drive the Leyland DAF and MAN for a while when the driver was off, this is a younger me stood in front of the MAN.

Which may or may not have something to do with my current toy…!

Paul sent me this pic today of one of Briggs Equipment’s Mercedes who you mentioned bought out Barlow Handling.

Found a clipping about barlow in the archives from 1985.

With regard to your current toy,you cant make this up Paul was editting some photos today from 2008 and came
across your MAN in a previous life. Hate to think what the odds are of that happening the same day you posted
your pic of the MAN.

i hated them spats on the rear wings and i told them where to stick the bodged up ‘urban’ (shortened 40 foot’s) trailers, if i was operating artics i would only use full length one’s even on pallet work . i had enough 18 tonne rigids available at northampton to waste an artic on a 30’ trailer when he could go out with a proper properly planned multi drop load.i know after i left my oppo had some urban’s on the job.
the CF’s were one of the best vehicles i’ve operated they got used 24 hours a day and most were only 380’s the day cabs were 340’s .
i did nearly 15 years at CS northampton

Actually, Paul had already caught it!

Some kind of home-made conversion, I presume, but looks a tidy sort of job, doesn’t it? Mind you, there isn’t much allowance for trailer swing on even an average king pin position of the time. Despite how smart it looks here, it’s not been taxed since the end of September 1985.

Yes Bernie bought the DAF from Flowers Commercials at Longham. He was a good friend of my fathers and I remember going with him to collect it , I must have been about 14 at the time. (He sadly passsed away several years ago) he also had the MAN Bussing which there have been pictures of on this site. cheers
