Not really.I appreciate it was a tragedy on the M5,but the full facts aren’t known in that accident.
Cheers Dave.

They run about sixty artics Nathan.I know that their drivers would be saddened by the fatal RTA,but this show is right on their doorstep,and no disrespect to the people who lost their lives in the accident,life has to go on.
I would think they must have discussed this before taking the vehicles to the show.
Cheers Dave.


Some of the Renaults on their stand.


A couple of tidy Swedish units.


This is a vehicle right up my street.

It is BRS rental, Volvo bought the BRS truck rental name and now of course they own Renault trucks, the haulage side of BRS went to Exel logistics which has now become part of DHL ( Deutsch post ), I’ve changed companies 3 times now but still have my service/ pension etc. and the same boss after 34yrs! I don’t have any name on the truck (a brs rental !!) just plain white :unamused:

Hi Harry & Trev,
Its a job to keep up with,who owns what these days.My brother in law has just been made redundant from the environment agency after 30 years,started with the water board,then his part of it became the national rivers authority,then became the environment agency.
Its job to know who your working for after a while I would think.
Cheers Dave.
