Early 1940s Diamond T truck pulling a large load, South Yorkshire, 1962. Artist: Michael Walters


Early 1940s Diamond T truck pulling a large load, South Yorkshire, 1962. The truck, bearing the unusual registration number of EGG 999 pulls the body of a 2400 Lima drag line unit on a low loader near the village of Hoyland, near Barnsley. The American tractor unit was probably ex US military and looks like a 1943 model. It was operated by Elliott Hauliers Ltd of York.
