Illustrating my earlier point about what is included on this site, you may be wondering what this monster has to do with service vehicles. Well, I have included it anyway as, on closer inspection, it is even odder than at first thought. The subject is a Scania R580 belonging to Albert Road Recovery of Purfleet, and Damon came across it Stratford in the process of 'picking up' National Express 3-axle Caetano Levante FN07BYV. Apart from the seemingly odd use of a low-loader rather than a tow-truck, the method of lifting the trailer is notable. As far as I can tell, the rear bogie moves backwards and forwards and the body pivots on top of it. Damon watched the process so maybe he can tell us more.... |
