• A 38-tonne tractor unit and an eightwheel tipper take pride of place on the ERF stands, 35 and 36 in Hall B.
The EIO tractor unit will go into service with Allan Morris of Clwyd to be used with tri-axle tipping trailers to haul coal on trans-Pennine routes. The specification includes a Cummins LTA10-290 216kW (289hp) engine with Eaton twinsplitter gearbox. It has a full sleeper cab, Clear-Pass spray suppression and a special 455 litre fuel tank.
The eight-wheeler is ERF's E12 with a Gardner 6LXDT 201kW (269hp) engine and a Fuller RTX11609A gearbox. The Rockwell SRHD tandem drive-axles have cross-axle locks through a third differential. The vehicle will be the first `E' series ERF to go into service with Alfred Hyams.
