Lots here on the OLD TIME LORRIES, COMPANIES AND DRIVERS (INTERACTIVE) section…

Pictures 4 and 6 are from a site about a run to a gold mine in Sarafshon,in eastern Russia. The site is run by a chap who posts on here called Dave Mackie…type his name into the search function (button at top of page) and you will find numerous posts by / about him.

I cant find the link to the original site but its well worth looking at (when you find it!! :laughing: ), some excellent long distance pics on there.

Hope this helps.
