Hi Marc found this magazine cover do you remember this company Hungarocamion they had thousands of trucks I believe!!Regards Pat
They had a huge fleet of those 140s, long-wheelbase 6x4s:
google.co.uk/search?q=scani … 23&bih=6860
To my eye, that configuration is the best-proportioned lorry. If I won the pools, I would have one in the living room, with a girl like the one on the magazine cover to polish it!
I remember seeing in the “National” hotel on one m/e trip,an English guy with a Scania 141 like this,but with a pair of Albion drive axles.
Hungarocamion was the Hungarian state transport before the Iron Curtain came down and they were probably the biggest east European haulier in those days.
They did indeed have many thousands of trucks of all the popular marques back then,as well as some of Hungarian manufacture,namely the Raba,which was an indigenous truck using the DAF 2800 cab.
Since the end of Communism of course,many private firms have sprung up,so reducing the number of state owned transport vehicles.
I think that maybe the remnants of the state transport it now called Huncargo,?

It is a big site, approximately 170 acres!!! Is the scrap moving again now? I heard RPM had put a stop on selling it until the price come back up a bit
I thought Hungarcamion became warbereers if that’s how you spell it, the yellow motors

Waberers are probably the most high profile of the Hungarian hauliers,but are they state owned?
This excerpt from Google says that Waberers took over from Hungarocamion,
WABERERS OPTIMUM SOLUTION OF BUDAPEST HUNGARY truck spotter. Operator who acquired the Hungarian state owned carrier Hungarocamion in 2002
Going by this it would appear that Waberers could be the biggest private haulier in Hungary.

That photo is a actually a model built by Gergo Kruska, as is the back ground and pallets. It’s all in 1/24 scale so the Scania is about 11 inches long and 6 inches high www. truckmodelworld.com

That was Silver Knight. A guy called Ray had two of them.Krupp cab & RR engine. Day & night outfit.The place was Boro’ Market, he was working his way round to Clink St.to the Customs for import clearance.Probably had TIR Carnets at the time.
Ray left Malta Cross to start this up & I took his place.

The letter box in this photo on the old road into Avonmouth reminds me of the time 40 years ago when I spent hours by it chiseling off a melted inner hub bearing that had welded it self to the drive axle on a Mammouth Major Mk 5. that had just come off the M5. Cheers Phil.
Sight for sore eyes, D848 was still around when I worked there in the late 90’s, and was sold on for further use.

Hi TBOG, did Jack Goodliffe drive this 3 axle 110 or did they run more than 1 ?
Hi, TBOG
Did Tommy Browns have more than one double drive Scania 110. I remember Jack Goodlife parking his at Charlie Gilliats at Wrawby with a tipper on.
I used to work with Jack’s lad ,Richard

A few more pages from my scrapbooks bit of a mixed bunch this time around. regards prattman.
Those pictures of the Wheatabix motors brings back a mem or two, One of their drivers lived at Berwick in the 70s He drove a Bedford TK Artic he broke down at Seaton Burn with clutch problems, And my mate Arthur Lowdon towed it in & did the repairs required and got him going, This bloke was called Dickie & he quite often called in for a cup of tea & a chat after that, I wonder if he is still about, ■■, Regards Larry.
