if i was to be born again it would be this era working the platforms & travelling in these classic british trucks! nothing beats atki's, erf's and foden's, hard working people & trucks ,love it!
Fantastic video and sounds .
Nice blast from the past 👍👍👍
Must be a real nightmare for the planners, arranging the parking for all these trucks and associated vans. Biggest problem for the drivers is that some of those older trucks would not have had power steering and to do all that close-quarter manoeveuring with a trailer on the rear end would have been such hard work!
Beautiful trucks ❤
BEAUTIFUL TRUCKS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No idiots, no protesters, no restrictions, common sense and respect.
What happened to showing some AEC powered coaches then if it was an AEC rally?
I absolutely love videos like these please keep them coming
Great Britain was the finest wagon manufacturer the world over for decades. What happened?
so how does this work, with a fair this size, do they have a usual spot or does someone decide who goes where or what? Is there one showman in charge of the whole thing? how does it all work ?
love this, not just seeing the vintage lorries but hearing them as well.
Fantastic, would love to see more raw F1 footage.
When U Was Part Of The Road,,,,,U Made Your Own Comfort Aswell❤👍👍
The good old days of being shaman😅
Happy memories lovely old lorrys very sad so many have gone now! My favourites was the ex army matadors and s20/21 Fodens, painted up fantastic and well looked after, I bet when all those gardeners started up it got a bit cloudy in that small space LOL
Congrats for this video, this is absolutely awesome.
Fantastic video 👏
Very surprised to see how the busses were driven then as i mean stering wheel and gears so small compared to now you cant get behind the seats looks like thats just a kids toy and noisy😮
The sound of the 2 stroke Foden 👍
Dreadful video
nothing beat those old fair trucks with the livrey on them,seeing them pass through our village every year beetween the motorways you knew summer was here
I'm loving watching all these drivers work the steering wheel. No power steering on these beauties.
Thanks for sharing this event. Some nice vintage Ford tractors. It would be better to pan the camera with the vehicles. Pick a spot where they are slowly moving, such as when they are queuing to park up. When they are static, pan around them to show the details. I know it's hard to start with. You could also try adding voice-over and commentary. Use text if you're not confident.
The older lorries with the near flat fronts,split windscreen, and the big radiator, must have been scary to see one in you're rearview mirror back in their heyday, would look like a big angry face with a big gaping mouth telling you to pull over and let it pass, haha, a brilliant and immaculate collection of vehicles.
Dfg
Very good tankyou
The real older lorries with flat or sloping fronts and massive radiators all have their own individual faces, seeing these guys on your rear view mirror,two big eyes for Windows and a big gaping mouth of a radiator, shouting at the car to get out of the way haha, brilliant turnout of immaculately kept vehicles and their hand painted signwriting.
The older lorries with the flat or sloping fronts, split windscreen and massive radiators all have their own faces, sitting looking in you're rearview and seeing two eyes and a big wide open mouth telling you to get out of their way haha, brilliant display of old and immaculate vehicles and their signwriting liverery.
Brilliant, some of the really old lorries with the flat fronts and massive radiators look like faces with big gaping mouths, they all have their own individual faces haha, brilliant and immaculately kept.
Brilliant, the vehicles are immaculate with their sable brushed signwriting, and the real older ones with the flat or sloping fronts and big radiators all have their own faces, the split windscreens for eyes and a big gaping mouth radiator haha, brilliant and some from my earliest memories, then my 17 years as a house delivery coal man driving nothing but 3 1/2 ton Bedfords, brilliant height for hand loading, and carrying off, and most times loaded with 6+ton , well over weight, but it usually went off quick enough in the streets when every house in the country had coal fires, so that when the weights and measures men who were common back in the day pounced on you, the lorry was usually legal or under weight haha, brilliant memories.
I wonder how many of these are still well kept now, in2023
Eine beeindruckende Parade von dicken Brummern.
Lovely!!!
Lovely!!!
Its important the public keep supporting the showmen or it will be another part of our culture taken away
At 4.37 , we had those trucks in the Brit army in Germany, heavy loader with tasker trailer, fitted with bin storage for small items of ordnance all manner of stuff along with 4ton Bedford MK also fitted with Thomas bins , the AEC,s had tank and large caliber barrels, or 16 tons of tank track, (war track ) finale drive and MBT power packs, these units were Ordnance field parks RAOC and had up to ninety vehicles that carried war like stores, or combat supplies POL and Ammo. for brigades support for 30 days, in 77/78 they were changed to Armoured Division Ordnance Company , I was in 7 0FP RAOC , then 2 ADOC 5 Field force ord coy and 1st (BRIT) CORP, Stores Company , in the forest of Germany, cammed up for days the batteries went flat, 15 men can push a 10 ton AEC and get the wheel to turn one revolution it will bump start
Lorries and signwriting are immaculate, .
A quick check shows most of these still taxed and on the road 30 years later
Fabulous video = and thanks for the time you took to make it. British classics. A million-mile 4th-hand rigid 8-wheeler, a home-built showman's body with a 180 Gardner slung in the back with its Atkinson rad grille visible, an exhaust pipe firing up the side, and a drum of diesel in the back, all blocked up level on bits of wood.
Many exhilarating rides on these on the X42 Derby-Nottingham. Always driven to the max. Love the D166 gearbox
6.45 my old family friend Meikle Tennent in his Atkinson . He was hit from behind by an uninsured foreign lorry and the Atkinson and trailer wrecked and him and his passenger injured . Despite his insurance company trying to scrap the lorry before even discussing payment it survived and has been rebuilt . Make sure your insurance it up to the job as it could happen to any one of us .
NO SOUND AND NONE OF THE CLIP IS ROACHES ITS ALL ETCHINS (NAMED AFTER THE FARMER WHO OWNS THE LAND)
Love it when they wax lyrical about this old rubbish, I’d make them do a month up the road kipping across the seats 😂
Nice old lorry's
At last! I can see what stops them from falling over! Never knew they "tied" the crane to the rails.
Great to see the Foden recovery truck that used to be based at Foden's service garage in Bow, East London, spent many an happy hour in the 1970s looking at the Foden's lined up in Eleanor street awaiting a service or picking up a spare part, also saw a fair few Foden's being towed in after breaking down or being in a smash on the back of the Foden recovery lorry in this video. Excellent memories and so good to see that old girl again.
Only one Guy, no Seddon Diesels ... it seems in preservation there are a lot of gaps in types of vehicle with some being very popular and others almost none existent. I suspect many of these vehicles present here have disappeared by now in 2023.
These vehicles are an absolute credit to their owners and technicians I love it
Lovely to see the Suttons 8 wheel Atkinson, I used to see that motor regularly at their East London depot in the 1970s, also became the last Atkinson working out of the East London depot I believe, some time in the mid 1980s.
