Love the sound of those old TK/KM motors on idle and shunting around - I find it very soothing and reckon I could sleep with it playing in the background .

 

It's official - I'm weird !

[Vantman]

Sorting out my 1930s/40s lorry magazines and came across this advert for REO Speed Wagons,i have only ever seen one in my life!

 

[Guest Hooli]

So that's what the popular group combo is named after.

You're not alone, I was enjoying the sound of those purring away.

[twosmoke300]

A big old straight six diesel is a lovely relaxing sound imo . Did that tk have a minimec pump ? Sure I can hear the rattle of the coupling aka Fordson Major

No, MAN is a consortium of Mercedes, Audi and NSU. That's a 'fact' I read on a model railway forum recently

Oh my, Cummins 290 as well, beautiful

^^^ phwoar, bog standard 2800 Daf, i did some bloody miles in one of those, cracking lorries.

 

Used to take my little lad then aged about 2/3 in a Britax child seat professionally* roped to the lorry passenger seat, they'd call bloody social services in now and put me on a register.

At the plant he'd have to hide on the bed behind the curtain while i changed trailers, cos no kids allowed, course the little sod would poke his beaming little face out and i'd have to shoo him back in but never got caught, big lug now with a 4 year old and 12 month old of his own.

[Pillock]

My mate's granddad drove for a transport firm, in the school holidays we both used to go along with him. One on the bunk, one in the passenger seat, hiding behind the curtain when we went to some sites like collieries. Went in a variety of DAFs, remember a 2500, 2800 and a 3300 with the bigger front bumper - that was their pride and joy. Also a Volvo F10. Just remember them getting a new-fangled DAF 95 on fleet when I was getting a bit too old to tag along.

 

Also, Mrs_Pillock used to ride along with her dad doing coal, sugar beet and stuff around Lincs. Same deal.... hide behind the curtain when you pull into the colliery and keep quiet

Another old 1936 advert found in my loft--

 

[5speedracer]

A decent model of that would cost that now!

Another tech at work was repairing this dash today:

 

Surely it can't be correct, It's just about doable but only if it's been sat at the limiter for 12 hours a day every day since new.

[tooSavvy]

^^ old chestnut... Didn't an old guy retire (USA) and get 'his' as a bye, bye?

 

XX million miles? (Fully refurbed for him!)

[DodgeRover]

Maybe continental runs with 2 drivers? when I lived in Birmingham there were companies who's black cabs were on the road 24/7 as they were split or rented between different drivers, given what a modern wagon costs you would want to keep it moving and earning as much as possible?

Not my work, from here...
