Hi Andrew,
Thanks for showing the BRS - Pontardulais - Foden. FWN 906
I have got a CorgI Model of this ERF in my large collection.-- Here is a photo of it.
Many thanks -Hywel.
one of tescos bit the dust on tenby road carmarthen - st clears west last night just out side the shell filling station road closed all day. Doubt this will deliver my cornflakes ever again.
Thatâs finished.

Great Pictures Pete the one where there on the pumps looks like a shot from lilttle britain
You wouldnt have any of a Hino of W.G.DAVIS I saw it on the road years ago when we used to load at Neath.Also think it was Cresswalls or Craswales
they had dark blue f88s and atkis mk2 silver knights and this next one a real long shot remember they on the embankment a lot going home for the M4 tehy had black and gray or dark colour atkis ERFS with coal tippers on slightly blinged up with horns and that think they were called Morris really
not sure on that one but can picture them now but great pics Pete

hi mrken,
thanks for your comments,the w.g. davies hino is pictured a few times around pages 40-50?the second firm you mentioned was probably caswellâs from ebbw vale.they ran many motors over the years,including an f88 with an 8 cylinder gardner/fuller/rockwell set up!the black and dark grey coal tippers are probably b.a. rodgers,they were based near the a465 at skewen near neath.again they are all featured on the pages of this thread.thanks again.
regards andrew
Thanks Pete ile get looking
