Trubrit:
Nice pictures…that first Thornhill reefer (night shot) is that a
Scammell with a sleeper? I have never seen that before. :slight_smile:

Nor me, a Michelotti sleeper, was it a one off or did I just miss them - like I did
this one 'till Trubrit pointed it out? :blush:

I liked the 2 steel cabbed Fodens of Matlock Transport and Wheildon’s. I had
one with a 220 ■■■■■■■■■■■■■ 12-speed (what a marvellous gearbox) as an
artic powder tanker on K&M Hauliers of Bulwell (later and still now, I think,
Hucknall).

A very good motor and a very good job - 'till it went less good. :unamused: :smiling_imp:

Just noticed Shirley and Proctor KM next to Frank Wright’s Fodden.
Milk churn collection specialists. :smiley: from Darley Dale.
