Sunday 3rd of August Ian Halsall and myself took the ERF unit on the 40th Transpennine Road Run from
Birch Services on the M62 to The Stray in Harrogate. This was a well organised run with a great turn out,
there was plenty of interest from on lookers along the way. The weather stayed fine and the crowds came
to the Stray. I will put up an album on picturetrail at the bottom of this page. Have a look on the Accidents will
happen page to see Big Shiny DAF breakdown lorry in a bit of a pickle rescued by an old lady.
Saturday March 7th another Atki saved for restoration. (Atkinson page)
Have a look at lowloaders page to see how Ted Jestin and Ted Walker solved a tricky problem.
Follow the link on the old Leyland Hippo to my mate Bill Weatherstone's page. Click on the Foden logo to

as The Diesel Gypsy tracked down the old Hippo to it's last resting place, his and vintage British Lorries
