Eddie Stobard & Our Scottish Trip (11)

Posted by AmberStClare on Sun 22 Feb 09, 8:17 PM to AmberStClare's blog.

We've just got back after a four day trip to Scotland during which I indulged in a little Eddie Stobart spotting to pass the time on the long drive. All together I managed to count 85 Eddie Stobart lorries which must be a record for me. Yes I know I'm a nerd

I was very impressed to see a freight train the other day, just North of Perth, All it was carrying was about 30 Stobart containers. Its great to get all those artics off the Highland roads.

I always enjoy spotting the red and yellow livery of a Prestons of Potto truck.

LOL Tractor is the bit at the front (with the driver in) - Trailer the bit at the back (in an arctic)

Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment - Mahatma Gandhi
