My camera person was on top form for this pic :exclamation:

Thats a tidy pic dave :smiley:

Narrow bit of road where that happened Tony.Quite a few wagons cut through that way to Wooferton.I would think Steve Deakins will need another unit to replace that one.Also typical reporting,there is no way he was carrying 32 tons,28 perhaps would be about right.
Cheers Dave.

That’s right dave 28.2 to be exact

One of Burgoynes,seen on the A49 at Bayston Hill, Shropshire. Burgoynes are finishing the artics this week, unless they have changed their minds.

Hi Dave,
How many Renaults do they have , i spoke to one of their drivers a while ago and they are very pleased with the performance of them ! regards Keith

Not sure Keith, they are supposed to be packing the artics up at the end of the month. They must have a few Renaults, only running 7 artics so they say.
Cheers Dave.

Yes I remember those Keith. I did get a job with them years ago, would have been driving a Thames Trader hauling apples to London, but having a girlfriend and parking my pride and joy newish Cortina overnight in their yard swayed me to stay put.
Cheers Dave.

No Keith, Adam Lythgoe Ltd were from Cheshire I think and had lime quarries up that way,with contractors all over the place spreading for them. Vic Adams from Llanfair Waterdine near Knighton had a couple of lorries years ago.
