We will have to wait for Merfyn to answer that one Nathan.There are a couple in this area still running them,so it’s quite possible.
Cheers Dave.

Hi Dave Havent seen a 6 wheeler with them. They are from Cheshire fair way from Minffordd so they might not send it that far.
I hhad a look on the dvla website now. F38FFC is still taxed and it says green Leyland so its possible they have one
I’m amazed if she’s still working Dave, it wasn’t shall we say a favourite amongst Smiths drivers but then the Constructors were seen as second best to the Fodens (although Dad said they were great starters in freezing weather)
Not a great picture but here in CW Sprostons’ livery at Gaydon
