Welsh Border and Mid Wales Hauliers 1950's onwards


Bulk Haulier Roger Matthews from Wormbridge was running about six ERF’S until recently ,but now running just this one as far as I know .


Not a tipper, but a tidy ERF four wheeler curtainsider, which no doubt will be a rare sight on our roads in the future.

Hi Dave
Nice pic’s again mate, good to see one of Roger’s. not good news down from 6 to 1 :open_mouth: met Roger a few times a very nice man, loves his ERF’s hope things pick up for him.

John.

Hi John,
I was told that he was down to one, don’t know more than that, probably lack of work, a few chaps with artics on bulk have said they have very little work, been quiet since christmas, can’t see it getting better for a while.
Cheers Dave.

A E Gough & Sons have been running lorries for eighty three years, based in Llandrindod Wells, Radnorshire. ( now Powys ) They run some of the smartest top of the range artic Bulk tippers in Mid Wales, along with two eight wheeler tippers.
I haven’t yet dropped into their yard to catch the whole fleet, but I will.
