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 .

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.

Great Britain was the finest wagon manufacturer the world over for decades. What happened?

Great video, I enjoyed watching and listening. Seems strange to think that some of those Borderers would have only been 15 years old and it looks like a lot of them where well loved but still working hard.

I'm slowly working my way through all your videos. Bringing back lots of memories.

That black and gold seddon with the matching American ford on the back was a converted dust cart, I can remember me and my dad chatting to him at truckfest 88 or 89.
