When I 1st started life as lorry driver a very long time ago, the company I worked for had a couple of these left being used as shunting lorries in a yard. They were converted to a hydraulic 5th wheel that could be raised and lowered in the cab. They were really good in the dry, but when things got icy or snowy they were a nightmare, you had to really slow down.
On a day when nations are debating how to save the planet from the abuse we have handed out to it, I hear the narrator of this video casually mention how we were systematically dumping waste into rivers and seas.
A great precursor of containers . I vaguely remember the Scammel Scarab operating in the old Covent Garden wholesale Fruit and Veg Market
