I went to do a job in Duncan Cabs in the late 70's when it was Duncan Cabs. The building is still there today empty at the moment I think but has had a few oil companies using it through the years.Nice collection would you add a DOE to it ? M 😀
Sound Andrew. A very iconic truck. I had the posters! Phillips was way ahead of his time with that classy customisation back then. Great to see it restored.
Moin Ist der schön geworden.....!!!! Gerne noch ein kleines Video vom Innenraum und Armaturenbrett......das ist ein bisschen zu kurz gekommen.....😉 Gruß Matthias
Awesome video. There should be Canadian carriers, taking a page out of Norwegian carriers, playbook as to how to properly spend money on reliable equipment. That being said, I thought this particular carrier ran mostly Volvos. I didn’t realize they ran also Mercedes and Scania as well. Very sharp looking fleet!👍
Glad you enjoyed it Grant. It's horses for courses as they say. Axle weights are nowhere near as prohibitive as New Zealand, so this configuration works well in Ireland.
One thing I notice about a lot of hauliers in mainland Europe is that they aren't afraid to spend money on top spec plant, same with the trailers. Irish hauliers seem determined to spend as little as possible.
Gidday!!! I drove this truck for two seasons when it was a milk tanker for Dairy Fresh Ltd at Taupo ,Miraka Dairy factory but before that it started it's life in Wanganui picking up milk for the Open Country dairy company there and it's Nick name was 'The Silver Bullet" Was an awesome truck to drive and nice to see it's still going 👍👍
Good footage. Could anyone in the business reply to a few questions please. How long are the shifts usually, ie, 8,10,12 hour shifts.? Do the trucks work night shift, as in ,are the trucks working two shifts per day? What sort of money might a driver earn weekly, annually? Thanks from Aussie feul tanker driver
Hi John. Glad you enjoyed the video. As for your questions, I don't know the specifics. But I think the trucks work one shift per day with a dedicated driver, hence the high specification and presentation.
Kerry Group started in a portacabin outside Tralee, Co. Kerry in the late '70s. Largest food ingredients company in the world now, plants all around the world. A great testament to hard working Irishmen.
Amazing collection,just came across this channel,a quirie for ya,ive a 6610 four-e county ,think only 5 made ,any info on em pleade dnt even know whats it worth,know one seems to know much about em,tks
Hello Pat. That's a rare one. I never knew about it until now. I see it was only made for two years. Contact Overseas Plant Exports to see what it might be worth.
