It is forecast that in five years' time, vehicle output at the heavy end of the scale will be nearly double that of today. Containerisation is going to contribute more and more to demand for bigger trucks/bigger engines. One of the most popular U.K. container sizes at the moment is the 8 by 8 by 30 tons g.v.w. truck and trailer unit. It is exactly for this kind of load that Rolls-Royce have developed their Eagle range. This is good thinking by a company who, over the years, has brought more prestige to this island than any other. Good luck to the Eagle and its contribution to the changing pattern of the trucking industry in this country.
