Impressive rig!
Why did Scania never built them like this?

Just found this video of a 140 actually doing some work:

Looks like this one has just emerged from the restorer’s workshop:

Nice engine note, seemingly without open pipes, trumpets or other noise-increasers. I suspect the quality of the recording device plays an important part in the reproduction of engine noises- if the microphone does not “hear” it properly, no messing about with the bass control will make it right.

Lovely!
Looks like some other rather nice stuff in that shed-looks like an LB76 there!
I’ve seen a 141 and a Transcontinental restored in the same colours aswell.is it a famous foreign livery or does this bloke own them all?

Edit-just Googled it-lewiszong transport-indeed they do own them all by the looks of it!!

That Facebook page yielded this video from, seemingly from the inside of the above 140:

I just looked at that Facebook page again. The Scania has been replaced by a Transcon. Never mind; I found this little gem:

Edit- sorted out the link. The video is about the development of the DS14 V8. It ends, seemingly for the fun of it, with a minute or so of (6 cyl!) LBS110 Scanias, trundling around the highways of Sweden, with a bit of very pleasant jazz backing music. The lorries make the contemporary cars look very old-fashioned.

I have to say I’d not noticed until you said ,must be a lamp post

[erf-ngc-european]

He’d have had fun with that boarding the Eurotunnel train.

Good job it’s a lamp-post then! Ro

What a tidy cracking outfit, Buzzer

[kmills]

That’s the same wagon as Page 1, pic 1- and yep, a cracking looking motor…

This truck is used daily for shifting trailers around the yard and assembling roadtrains. Probably had it from new with a few million KMs on the clock now. Taken last week in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia.
