- An unexpected appearance on the front at Teignmouth today, the Devon Rangers Truckfest, a celebration of the mighty trucks and buses of yesteryear that have been preserved to working order, giving viewers an idea of what road haulage and road passenger transport was like in the 1950's and 1960's.
Featured in the video are:
- Dodge Kew
- Leyland Octopus tanker truck
- Dennis D Series Fire Trucks
- Thames Trader
- Plenty of ERF Gardners
- A myriad of Bedford O Series
- Leyland and AC Double Decker buses
- A fully restored RAF Leyland Hippo fuel truck

and much more!
Enjoy!
Great to see and hear the old hgvs I drove a few of the type and brings back memories of them
Fabulous. The sound of a two stroke Commer never fails to light the nostalgia circuits up!
Just mazing how these old lorries keep looking great after many tears of service,
Thank you Rory

Hi Ruairidh,
The opening shots of the Thames Traders brought back memories, I drove a 3 tonner and a 15 cwt. Thames van for Chas Brand & Sons back in the 1960s. They were repairing the main elevated sewer lines at East Ham, London. Once while driving the Trader through the Blackwall tunnel the exhaust fell, boy what a racket!!!
Later on I progressed to an ERF 7 tonner with a 5 pot Gardner engine, transporting construction equipment from S London to Beachly near Chepstow S Wales. I discovered photos of this truck, fully restored in her CBS livery and would love to get in contact with her present owner. If you know of her or see her in your travels please message me back.
Thanks BS
Old memories of childhood in India back in the early 70s era have comeback. Lots of Bedford trucks & buses along with Dodge Fargo truck and of the Leyland Titan double decker buses.
It amazing to see how y’all in Britain preserve your history much better than we do in the US
Especially considering how wet it is here. Everything rusts!
Such an awesome selection of trucks! Well captured dude!! 😁💪👌
Taunton cider truck is pure class
Nice one Rory - Great selection of classics there.
Cheers, Bob.
What a cosy event.
Thank you for sharing.
Nice collection of classics, the old Dodge Kew reminded me of the old truck movie " Hell Drivers "...must check the dvd, that might have been one of the trucks used in the film.
Superb video Ruairidh ......Nice to be reminded of many types of Lorry and Bus i remember from times past !....Steve.
My father used to take that No.37 bus to Clapham Common back in the 50's to 60's. He used to take the No.35 too.
Some great looking lorries and buses great share cheers Kevin
Great VIDEO mate thanks for sharing,happy New Year!
I wonder if the Octopus tanker set off that car alarm!
It's a well known phenomenon so quite possibly, or another truck.
