Not a tipper, Richard Radnor’s Foden unit from Ludlow currently used on Bricks etc.

L500LFO is still running every day working as a subbie for The Hogan Group, Bangor, North Wales. Owned and operated by Tecwyn Jones of Llanrug near Caernarfon, North Wales. At the age of 67 he’s not even thinking of retiring.


C M Mercer run a fleet of artics from their base near Leominster. This is one of the last Scania units they have. The rest of the fleet is now Volvo. They run most of the time on bulk tipping work, also potato haulage from their own farms and cold store.


Y2 KTH is one of two foden straight beam six wheelers bought new by KTH, Y3 is the other, both used on muck shift and quarry work. Both vehicles have the Cat 340 engine, Cat being the prefered engine in all the KTH fodens.

Three of C M Mercer’s fleet in their yard near Leominster Herefordshire


Another of Mercer’s.


Richard Radnor’s Foden after a wash, cleaned by his girlfriend.


John Tozer has driven this foden from new for KTH, John has been with the firm for 25 years.


C M Mercer’s workhorse, this vehicle delivers the seed potatoes to various farms in three counties.


Another view of a hard worked veteran.

Will have a lot more of the older vehicles on this thread soon.

Thanks for posting your pics Dave and thanks for increasing the size.

Do you have any pics of Griffiths 8 wheeler Scanias that used to run in Tarmac colours?

Cheers
Mark
