HE SHOULD!!!

Paulson:
Then this beauty - it parks up in Leggetts’ yard, and I was wondering if the truck used to be owned by Simon Boon?

This is Wayne Bloomfield’s, from Harleston. He used to run with Wayne Leggett pulling mainly out of Ipswich, not sure what either of them are up to now. He’s had it from new though, it replaced a standard R-cabbed Scania in similar colours.

Thanks George!! :smiley:

Couple of questions -

This orange one, I saw this at Felixstowe docks a couple of years ago and at that point the ‘530’ badge has been replaced with a ‘720’ one - anybody know if it’s been chipped or indeed has it been changed back?

Carrying a 530 badge these days

please do not get this lovely motor mixed up with another orange topline thats also on containers out of felixstowe, this truck is a 144 530, the other is a tatty 124 470 thats had the badge numbers swapped to 144 720 (all same numbers used) easiest way to tell them apart is the twin h/light conversion and the lower kelsa bar on the 530.
