He’s got a piece of string as a safety harness. Come on Casey,you know how cash strapped the haulage industry is.

Yes, Dave, I certainly do. But there still seems to be enough spare cash to keep all those accessory companies afloat.
A bit older for a change, Dave - but a little question too:
Recent unearthings at a big scrapyard let me snap Ex M A Evans AEC Marshal EFO155H - any ideas when they got rid of it?

Would be late 70’s I would think Steve.They had that when I was still driving, it was their biggest lorry then, all the rest were Seddon 13/4 four wheelers which did a lot of timber.
Cheers Dave.

Roy probably changed it for a Volvo F86 six wheeler tipper with a lift axle. I think a chap named Peplow drove the AEC.
