CORTY-TWO Boden 26-ft. tandem-axle TIR semi-trailers have recently been delivered to British Road Ferry Services Ltd. and one is seen here hauled by a Bristol tractive unit. They will be used on regular BRFS services between Tilbury and Antwerp/Rotterdam: Dover and Dunkirk; Newhaven and Dieppe; and to Scandinavia via Harwich.
Plans are also well advanced for the trailers to be used on the new roil-on/ roll-off service to Rotterdam from Felixstowe, where BRFS has just 'sited a new depot.
The 26-ft. trailers arc 8 ft. 2+ in., wide and have an adjustable tilt so that overall height can be varied between 7 ft. 6 in. and 8 ft. 6 in.
