I was interested to see the photo of Scammell KD 9168 (CM May 5) and to read in Letters to Editor (CM June 7) about the only other vehicle of this type, BLH 21. As stated by Mr. Miller in your issue of July 5, the vehicle KO 9168 was commissioned and operated by Marston Road Services Ltd., later renamed MRS Ltd. When another Liverpool heavy haulage operator, Edward Box died, MRS bought the business from his widow, and KD 9168 was transferred to run under the name of this company, Edward Box Ltd. a subsidiary of MRS. Acquired with the business of Edward Box, was a steam traction engine, with 15-ton jib (registration number KD 28261 and I would be most interested to hear where it is.
