I look forward to this post as I’m local and recognise/see lot of the trucks
Faulkners not doing hay and straw nomore?
Yella ,
Some really nice tidy motors there and some great pics,many thanks and regards derek.
yes, roger faulkeners MAN was a hodnet motor, and yes he still does hay and straw, but he takes a lot building panels out of north wales to pick hay and straw up from wherever else.

Makes sense now… Used to be up in Llandegla a lot but not for a while so thought he’d hit the hay and straw on the head…
Have I imagined it or have I seen LE Jones motors pulling for Kingspan?
LE’s were doing a fair bit for RJ’s at one point last year, not sure what happened but they haven’t been in there for a while.

so where are they based now ?
faulkeners or hodnet??
faulkener is still in llandegla and hodnet has packed in i think. i seem to remember someone saying that he’d sold his yard for housing. not sure about the latter though
well done yella i really enjoy looking at these pictures every week. 
Hodnets yards empty… Seen his old trucks all over the place… Few of Faulkners seem to park in Owens old yard in Ruthin
surprised waterhouse still going i used see them pulling macs trls at least them going bust didnt affect them 
About time there was a red one on here!!!

do taylors still do everything out of there?
It’s the red Wilsons R Series for me this week Yella. Keep em coming mate, quality .
I would have to agree with Andy, that new R480 Low Chassis ride height of HC Wilson is the ticket for me also.
Loved the Truck & Driver feature last month on the HC Wilson operation, very interesting and a great insight into heavy haulage operations from the professionals.
Nice selection of photographs all the same, and AGAIN the ‘BIG SWEDE’ wins the day or the week in this case… 
Good-Luck!

Wheather or not they keep it is another matter.
