Scrapbook Memories (Part 1)

Tyneside wrote; In the 1970’s Leyland marketed the Redline and the Blueline. Also and ‘not a lot of people know this’ the GUY range became the Greenline as below in ads for the model, which by the date of the brochure, and the last for GUY only produced for another four years, it had become very dated with the Motor Panels cab having first appeared in the early 60’s. However the Green and Silver paintjob does brighten and sharpen up the old motor. Franky.

Every days a school day. Didn’t know that about the Guys. I remember going to a Leyland corporate do in the early seventies at the hotel at Newcastle Central Station and seeing a promo film about the Red and Blueline. Green never got a mention.
Thanks for the info.

Judging by the disturbed soil under the sign, it had not long been erected. You don’t think the accident came first do you? And somebody with a sign to spare was having a bit of a laugh. :laughing:

Expensive rescue, expensive repair, even more expensive Insurance next time…

Or perhaps the council re-erected the sign that had been knocked down by the car, before the recovery could be organised :wink:

Really? It takes over six months to organise recovery? :wink:

This photo is Cunard Shell Works in Bootle, Merseyside in 1917 during World War 1.
The steam engine lorry is being loaded with ammunition shell cases to take them
to a factory not far away to be loaded with the live explosive gunpowder.

The Morris-Commercial PV is strange in that the opening windscreen is on the left hand side? :confused: Only the very early ones had the split, on the driver’s side of course, as later they had full screens on both sides. A passenger seat wasn’t normally fitted anyway, like the later LD van it was an optional extra.

Pete.
