Commercial & Military vehicles[]

A number of interesting vehicles were present. But the layout was a bit poor with a second line hidden behind the ones fronting the roadways & no real order to the line up yet again !! (the tractors can sort it out so why not the commercials)

Mack truck lineup at Driffield-P8100501

Interesting collection of Mack trucks in the commercial line up.

A number of interesting vehicles were present. But the layout was a bit poor with a second line hidden behind the ones fronting the roadways & no real order to the line up !!

Details to follow

(photos to follow later) And a few more trucks besides.
