Saturday film club: Heavy haulage lorry trials



In 1953, the NCB arranged a series of heavy lorry trials at Arkwright colliery. This is the film of those lorries from Scammel, Foden AEC and Euclid in action. 

The video transfer isn't great, but the sound works well. It's a good watch if you like vintage films or heavy haulage in action. The last 4 minutes include some interesting bucket loaders as well.
