Leathers Chemicals also had tri-axle tailers with larger tyres on middle axle,super singles on 1&3 and I think twins on centre,at least different size if not twins.

Sadly 3 companies no longer around Townson were taken over by Sadler in 1980 they were then taken over by Stiller in 2000.County Freight taken over by Direct North West in 2002 and Direct closed 2006.

Anyone out there with any pics of Lynch Tankers from Northwich or any other tanker companys.
