Hi dave another nice pic ! That Scania reminds me of those ERFs ran by Wool producers from Brecon , are they still going ? regards Keith .
Hi. Dave & Keith.
Yep, Wool Producers of Wales are still going strong, but don’t have any lorries of their own now - all the transport is subbed out. This photo is our R480 carrying compacted wool bales from Bromyard wool depot to Wool Producers of Wales depot at Brecon. My Brother Nigel is driving. We have been working for W.P.W for about 50 years now - we are second generation hauliers!
The colour scheme on the Scania is just as we bought it at 7 months old, factory white with a blue bumper. It’s a coincidence that it looks like a W.P.W. lorry!
One of the last Wool Producers ERF’s was bought by a owner driver from down Llandovery way, and still hauls wool into the Brecon depot.
Our Scania replaced a blue Foden Alpha six wheeler which I believe is now owned by Trucknet member Dan Punchard.
If you google the Scania’s registration no: W50 RHM, you will find a great photo of it loaded with farmer’s wool packs, which is mostly what we do.
Regards,
Chris.
