[@ange2427]

thankyou James for standing for 3 hours to do the video it was great to see

[@oldwobble916]

An impressive collection of lorries and vans. Some of them reminds me of the Dinky Toys I use to have in my youth in the '50ties.

[@jonathancrone41]

what a lovely show of old lorries from the 1970s 0r before mind you most of them were very old I think 1960s .? but still with watching this you tube going to pass on to acquaintance .

[@vmlelectronics]

The Lesney's Matchboxes came to life!!!

[@bigemage]

was about to comment same thing! Specially at 20:20

[@lizzard71]

When I was a child, I had the Matchbox version of the truck at 20:18, also the thumbnail. Around 1969 or so. Thank you.

[@Pfennigabsatz]

Foden HOVERINGHAM......my Matchbox car 55 Jears ago. Greatings from Germany :-)

[@Pesmog]

Love all the Foden 8 leggers, and that's the first Hoveringham I have ever seen for real. Thx 👍 That 4WD transit from 1983 was a pretty rare thing as well.

[@aswclassicsiow8588]

20:17 I remember seeing loads of the Hoveringham Foden S21's around London in the 1960s, when I use to go with my dad in his truck delivering around the London area

[@haroldocantanhede]

Great video. Superb shooting of so many warriors of old. Thank you!!

[@andyclark1173]

Thank you for showing these vintage lorries. I’m 66 now and it’s great watching all the different lorries I’ve travelled in with my father as a child. My favourite at that time and still is, is the Commer Maxiload. Just love the sound of the 2 strokes.

[@robhardingham6770]

The Hastings Ford wagon is still earning its keep as well! Lot of nice sounding gems in there 👍👍

[@WasterSpace-tt2np]

Sights and sounds of my childhood growing up then my career! Far better than the sterile computer controlled nonsense today but then that’s progression I guess. Thank you for sharing.

[@martinhowe3679]

superb thank you all brisbane australia

[@cloudmaker]

23:50 was a nice surprise to see an old work mate, Alan Dale in his Vulcan. Thank you for this James it was an absolute joy to watch. All the best.

[@edwinholland6149]

Excellent vid, makes me feel really old when I see stuff I used to drive going to a classic truck show ! Some lovely kit there though.

[@TheCyberSalvager]

I was there attending the model truck festival for the first time so didn't get to see all that much of these. I must also say that your camera work is excellent. Far too often I see videos like these where the camera is either wobbling all over the place or zooming in or out at all the wrong moments! Well done.

[@kallsop2]

That's cool! So many of those I had as Matchbox, Dinky, and Corgi toy cars when I was a kid in the 60's. The Ford cement truck, and the orange dump truck that said Hoveringham on the side really made me smile.

[@commonsensethinker]

wtf? Actually the best thing on here! Superb, just the best, from a 66yo former trucker

[@mt5144]

Great Video, nice to see a Video of Trucks I would see when I was in School & my dad worked afternoons for Bass Charrington driving his 32 ton Artic, I use to go with him after school 4 days a week in the later 70's in his 1974 Scammell Handyman with a RR 220 Engine, Wonder if there is any Bass Units on the Vintage Commercials Circuit, Superb Atkinson at 10.09 with a Sought after Cummins Engine, Sounding just like they use to 10/10.

[@philmaguire3887]

God bless yous lads for perceiving such buties much get around to that old HINO some time Phil Maguire meath lreland

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Nicely captured. Regards, John

[@derMenix]

Vielen Dank für das schöne Video! Soviele prächtige Lastwagen ❤️‍🔥❣️ Viele Grüße aus Deutschland 👋😃

[@tbys8]

There really is something for everyone. The old English material with its sometimes bizarre shapes but also the fine lettering is simply great!

[@williamcarrington61]

Good to see the Thames Trader , always thought it was better than the Military Bedford !

[@roconnor01]

I liked the Blue Star Line container, I used to use that long-since defuct British shipping company to bring back meat from South America. The compnay was owned by the Vestey familly,who unsurprisingly also owned Dewhursts the Butcher. One of the ports they loaded at was Fray Bentos,in Uruguay !

[@kenmtb]

Some beautiful truck you guys have there!

[@user-bi3ww3im3s]

When trucks where trucks 🚛 a lot of memories with me going in the wagon with my dad and seeing these wagons on there way to a show respect to you for this footage 🫶🤝🙏

[@ryanSLF]

Seen alot of these coming off the Liverpool boat in Belfast, was wondering what was happening. Now i know lol

[@em.2s767]

Meu amigo... Que beleza de vídeo com vários exemplares!!! Saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷💪

[@paulhare662]

I own several of these trucks. Mine are around 2 inches long and say Matchbox on their bottoms.

[@rustyrims05]

We used to see Hovinghams in Retford but we called the Hoveringhams.

[@northernblue1093]

???

[@Tom-Lahaye]

What a nice parade! Many of the brands are relatively unknown outside the UK in Europe, but it's nice to learn how many brands there existed in the UK, sadly almost all gone now. The old Fodens and Atkinsons are some of the visually more pleasing examples, as do the Foden S20/S21 and Commer TS3 two strokes for the ears. The Bedford TK and the Ford models were the most common British trucks here in the Netherlands. The Volvo F88 is the truck which I remember the most as a haulier at the end of the street where I lived as a child had a large fleet of these, starting from the early chrome grille models. But also the Mack R series I do remember, a local single owner-operator in our neighbourhood had a 4x8 dumper, but with three trailing axles and not the double front steer which was so common in the UK. Not seen in the video but another company nearby then had Fiat 682 N3/N4 tractor units.

[@cal28kim]

I drove a couple of different Foden haulmaster over a number of years ♥️❗

[@diegoluisgiaccari]

[@lucianene7741]

20:05 This one has a 2-stroke engine, most likely a Commer TS3. Same as the one at 20:16.

[@markstarmer3677]
