Just found this. Do you think many transport firms are closing due to ‘retirement’ or are they really getting out while they can ■■?

Close up with some dignity left rather than go bust. Makes a little sense I suppose 
I went to an auction Thursday and bought a trailer, I was amazed how many people were still buying and paying top money for gear.
RJ Mason gone as well, couple of well known firms. We’re all doomed I tells YE.
Sad times! 
If he was coming up to retirement, why buy all those R series?
It is sad to hear that yet another firm is going under . I remember the firm that i worked for in Heywood used top gear to do some trunking for them. I think that they had fl10 units at the time i hope that some top gear drivers are on here and will let us know what is going on
prehaps Jeremy Clarkson will be interested
And I was only thinking the other day on the M62 I haven’t seen a Top Gear Motor for a while they used to be up and down there for fun. Well now we know.
