Heavy haulage

Although it took most of the freight form the railways my other priciple hobby is heavy haulage does anyone share this. In my opinion a great weekend is a trip to the NYMR on the Saturday and Driffield truck fest on a sunday. There nothing like watching a monster truch crush a caravan, retribution for all them times they have got in the way when we are trying to chase mainline railtours

Driffield is phants compared to Peterborough, but although it is my local show, and I can't get to Peterborough this year!
If you want a show, I've never been, but Scotland is the best!

Yes have been to the Edingbough one before only downside of going for the hole weekend is that the site is next to the airport and sleep is generally not an option but that does not bother me. Arrivals on friday night are always interesting, I have some arrivals at Driffeild on film, mostly bulmars drivers making idots of them selfs lol

You don't sleep much at Truckfest

As for Bulmers drivers making idiots of them selves, I don't know if you've see one of my other posts relating to my user name, X568 WCN, which is/was no, and Bulmer Reg

Don't know if you know, but Macfarlanes have gone in to administration, mid Feb.
The New Company is Macfarlane Holdings LTD and all the Macfarlane cabs have gone, replaced by white ones with small titles until the new two tone greeen livery is sorted in a Stobart wrap around style livery!
