Picture's

Looking at that last picture…didnt DTS used to North Africa with the clothing! Cloth out, finished goods back, same as Breda Transport used to?

bullitt Thats right .That snap was taken in Boceguillas on the Tres Hermanos truck park on the way home from Tangiers.

Harry, are they still going ,still doing North Africa? And did they use their own drivers or were they subbies/

Cheers, bullitt.

DTS stopped European, sold off that side of business, then they sold UK arm too, to Clipper group.

As I was sitting on the dock at IJmuiden on Thursday, waiting for the overnight ferry to North Shields, this came in to unload.

Its a short trailered artic

with a pretty long trailer hooked on the back

25.25m long, as the warning on the rear says

The driver was saying that he can carry 3 Toplines and a flat roofed unit. This is a shot of the lifting gear used to prop up the rear end of a unit,
I hope its clear enough.

You can also see that the dropped section under the front axle of the 8 legger has been lifted up to make a level surface for driving it off.

You mean this companie :wink:

O yes spot the trucks,you never safe :laughing: :laughing:

Yes thats the company, vast majority are owner drivers in Nedexcos colours. Pay a couple of cents more if you have their livery, but rates there are a joke now.
