Thanks for joining me for this weeks video, as I take you on a tour of the British Commercial Vehicle Museum. It was great to learn the history of these vehicles, spanning well over 100 year’s of history.
That's neat. I've always wondered, how different were the foden trucks from the dafs? Was it a different chassis and axles or just a modified cab and different engine?
Well done Stavros, that museum looks like a great trip down a british memory lane ;) I enjoy being nosey in motor museums and hope to visit that one if i get lucky enough to visit the UK on tour in the future :) My dad learned to drive on ERFs as a teenager (Millicans yard shunting) in the 50s and went on to spent his life behind the wheel of an artic. He told me a few eye opening stories of his life on the road in the UK. .......RIP dad........
I've been there with friends and the smell of the place fills your soul with great British history... the exhibits have a "traffic light" system, the green ones you can climb in and sit in the drivers seat, me and my friends stood in the back of the Leyland T45 Pope Mobile... I'm not a big fan of the Truck Shows and Truckfest's these days but British history amazes me and The Commercial Transport Museum is very much worth a visit...
Thank You from America Texas. I was born in Ossett. Drive Ford 3 ton truck. This video “ awesome “. Brought back memories. Cannot wait for more 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Thank you.
Hello Stavros. Just subscribed. Another great video. I remember seeing a lot of those older vehicles on the roads. Keep them coming. Always loved trucks and anything with an engine. Will go and visit that museum when I can.
I have worked on a lot of these older vehicles as a diesel fitter starting as an apprentice in 1960 aged 15. Whilst it's great to see them in there former glory it's sad that so many manufactures have gone to the wall. Leyland were a leader in bus and truck makers and I could never have foreseen what has happened to all of our truck manufactures, in the case of Leyland they did make some catostropic decisions regarding their engines. That 500 series was a total disaster, I drove a Bison tipper with the 511 engine rated at 230 BHP that while it was a good puller it seized up for no reason at all, both the oil and water levels were normal and the temperature gauge showed no problem, being a diesel fitter I would have thought this impossible especially as the engine had done 80,000 miles from new without a problem but it seems that it was quite normal as an Octopus did exactly the same thing. The warranty claims on this engine must have been horrendous and it even happened on the lower powered Guy Big J with the non turbo 170 BHP version engine. These engines probably had a big impact on Leylands demise.
@@robinking6201 Yes that’s the engine,it was a 1929 Leyland Lion petrol engine design that some bright spark dug up from somewhere and decided it was a good idea because of Leyland’s head gasket problems which it solved but overheated cylinders 5 and 6 causing them to seize up when conditions were right plus being cast in one piece the block had nowhere to expand so that was the result,it was designed for 510 BHP to power the whole range of vehicles so God knows how long it would have lasted if they hadn’t of down rated it.
The 500-series engines were starved of development money as I understand it. By then, the government had got Leyland involved with BMC and the cars were where the money was spent. Sad!
@@peterlovatt4156 I think a lot of the problems with the 500 series engines were Leylands reluctance to intercool their engines,I had a Leyland Riever with the 410 turbo,it pulled like a train but suffered from overheating problems in warm weather. Scania used Leyland based engines but fitted intercoolers to them and with great success plus they squeezed more power out of them without loosing reliability and I put that down to lower combustion temperatures in the cylinders with the use of intercoolers. I’m not sure but Volvo used AEC designed engines but used better quality materials and again used intercoolers,210 BHP out of a 6-7 litre was pretty impressive in those days.
Interesting to hear you’re history with leyland trucks. So sad what happened to the British independent truck manufacturers. Perhaps, a lot of it was down to the management and cutting costs, as well as some complacency about being market leaders at the time, and having the comfort of commonwealth countries they could easily export to without restrictions like tariffs etc. But I think as well, leyland took on too much, when they bought British car manufacturers and merged the whole lot together as British leyland.
Stavros, another great video. My favorite part had to be the cheers blooper. Your cheers at the end of your videos always makes me smile. I'd love to see you do an extensive video on the concept truck, that was really really cool. Keep up the great work
thanks very much for the video and tour i had no idea this place was there but i will definitely be giving it a visit if im in that area in the future.
A great video mate we have Museum like that here in New Zealand with all make's and model's from around the world.Keep up the great work and look forwand too your next video Cheeeeeeer's..
I used to spend so much time in here as a kid since its my home town and had the opportunity to work at Leyland Trucks it wasnt a major role it was simple as ensuring the bolts ect was never empty so putting code 125796 goes in 125796 tub as the chassis came down the line so i guess it was a important role ensuring the wrong parts wasnt being used to bolt what ever onto the chassis.
I hate to say it but Paccar ate almost every British brand up, I miss the days were there were different manufacturers. In my time here on earth I seen so many manufacturers go out of business like Brockway, dimond T, autocar, Leyland, ERF, Foden and the list goes on and on.
Cool video Stavros, you have a new subscriber (I'm looking to get a rigid licence soon.) You would have made a great Guard; "Step outta that Vayhicle." :P
Oh Stavros, it's been killing me to know. The video of the 2017 SCANIA S580 demonstrator that was blue/silver/purple. What was the name of the color of that truck? I really thought that was a beautiful truck.
Before the era of consolidation and nationalisation in the UK truck industry, is it known what the typical top ten (or appropriate) ranking was among the notable marques in terms of truck and commercial vehicle production?
that lorry with a foden badge on is not a Foden its a daf how can this happen, fodens were built in sandbach with unique cabs.its like putting AUSTIN on the front of our AEC trucks we used to build.there was anger at putting a Leyland badge on the front of our Marathons we used to make at AEC in southall in the late 1970s.the engine was our own tl12 diesel.the option was a rolls Royce 220 eagle or a cummins nhc 250.
I’m confused because I have no knowledge about trucks, but I have seen Man trucks made by the Volkswagen group today, but after seeing The MAN Diesel 1954 that shipped missiles for the RAF navy was MAN originally British but sold to the Germans? 🇬🇧
Why Paccar stopped making Foden is anyone's guess in favour of DAF, the new Foden 8x4 was one of the best trucks I have ever driven with the CAT electronic injection engine rated at 325 BHP, it was a little noisy in the cab when the engine was under load but could that engine get up hills fully loaded. The chassis on Fodens was one of the best available and the elephants foot rubber suspension was great giving a really smooth ride, I had that truck for eight years and that engine never missed a beat in over 270,000 miles with only oil and filters needed for the engine at service time.
Perhaps, if Leyland trucks steer cleared from the British car industry they might be independent today, building British trucks and lorries for the British market and export. 🇬🇧
@@davidevans8778 thank you as now i can tell someone they are wrong hate when youre told a story with faults i feel stupid now my bad but hey thanks for correcting me .
They said all vehicles displayed built in early years of last century are made in England. .. wondering where did British brought required raw material that is steel from.... answer is India because it was made available for Brit manufacturers almost at zero cost... video has missed to give this important information. ..
Considering now that you can actualy buy a Leyland comet or a Laird , brand new from India , or indeed a Leyland electric light van from China , You can even buy a BMC truck from Turkey and a Morris commercial also from China , What about a Royal Enfield Motorbike or a Rover 75 .......No problem at all , just go to just about any country in the world except Great Britain . But hey , we got museums to remind us all about just what we had and let go . ERF should never in a million years have been sold to the Germans . Today of course thanks to Red Robbo, Scargyll, Mcklusky and now Mick Lynch who is hell bent on destroying the train industry but today we have NAFFINK thats right we have sweet FA in terms of vehicle manufacture , we dont even have any Wheelbarrows , nor Fork lift trucks , but the foreigners somehow squeeze extra life in what we thought was defunct and worthless and remind me , just hpw big is Royal Enfield today ....aaah yes its the 4th biggest motorcycle manufacturer in Europe . Pleese can we have it back so we can go and loose it again .
Wiltshire beer reviews Good ale Being a DAF employee in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, I have to say that DAF is a Dutch company. And has been so since 1928. All shares are now owned by PACCAR, from the USA and the Americans make good use of our engine development skills for the Peterbilt and Kenworth trucks. All development on the XF and CF is done in Eindhoven, as were the old DAF 95 and 85-75-65 series. The 11 and 13 liter engines were newly developed and built in Eindhoven, the cabins of the XF and CF were designed in the Netherlands and are built in Belgium. Leyland builts the RHD chassis and assembles the RHD trucks and the smallest CF and LF’s with the Cummins engine. The LF’s are all built and designed in Britain, apart from the cab, that comes from Renault. DAF engines before 2005 had a Leyland heritage: originally, those DAF engines were a Leyland licenced product from about 1957. But these engines were completely changed ( turbo added, intercooling, higher volume, 4 valves per cilinder etc) over the years. Since Euro 4-5-6 a completely new design was needed. Automotive is not a case of being built in Britain or in the Netherlands, it is a global operation. That is what many people fail to understand. And the number of good automotive suppliers in the UK is, I am sorry to say, very limited.
Yes and no ! Daf trucks are built in Britain Holland and Belgium, but the parent company is Paccar , American . But i am well aware DAF was initially Dutch .
15:25 Немецкий грузовик, купленный военным Флотом её Величества, чтобы перевозить торпеды. Учитывая, что это 1954 год и война закончилась всего 9 лет назад. И ладно бы у Британии не было своих дизельных грузовиков. Так нет же, были, и порой даже лучше чем немецкие. Компания Perkins Engines с 1932 г. и по сию пору выпускает простые и очень надёжные автомобильные дизельные движки. А ведь был ещё и Gardner, который начал производить автомобильные дизели даже раньше Perkins (с 1929 г.) и который по итогу этот самый Perkins и скушал в 1986. Плюс у Rolls-Royce было подразделение до 90-х годов производившее дизельные моторы для коммерческой техники (Rolls-Royce Diesels). Короче, всё нормально обстояло у Британии с этим делом и зачем было покупать импортную технику, да ещё и у недавнего смертельного врага, совершенно непонятно.

Thanks for the tour around the museum.
I saw many trucks i would newer see here in Europe.
I especially liked the Chevrolet /Vauxhall truck. 👍👍👍
Amazing video Stavros I think I'm going to visit 😀
Don't fall over bud all them Leyland's sent you giddy LOL .
Can any one go here like a normal museum or is it invertation only?
Hi Callum I'm sure anybody can visit
I actually worked at Leyland Trucks and was part of the team that built the steering box for the last foden built in 2006
That's neat. I've always wondered, how different were the foden trucks from the dafs? Was it a different chassis and axles or just a modified cab and different engine?
That 1984 prototype could be released today, it's hardly aged!
a couple of small tweaks like LED lighting would bring it bang up to date.
It's over 20 years now, since I delivered it to the Museum
Well done Stavros, that museum looks like a great trip down a british memory lane ;) I enjoy being nosey in motor museums and hope to visit that one if i get lucky enough to visit the UK on tour in the future :) My dad learned to drive on ERFs as a teenager (Millicans yard shunting) in the 50s and went on to spent his life behind the wheel of an artic. He told me a few eye opening stories of his life on the road in the UK. .......RIP dad........
Beautiful musium & good information given in this documentry
Fascinating video loads of British truck history there , might need to take a trip down someday and have a look myself
I've been there with friends and the smell of the place fills your soul with great British history... the exhibits have a "traffic light" system, the green ones you can climb in and sit in the drivers seat, me and my friends stood in the back of the Leyland T45 Pope Mobile... I'm not a big fan of the Truck Shows and Truckfest's these days but British history amazes me and The Commercial Transport Museum is very much worth a visit...
I am a Tanzanian. I real like your videos
Thanks for the look around. Great stuff.
Brilliant, need to visit that place now!
That little Morris ice cream van was a real beauty.
All those vintage trucks... I really like them!! Great video Stavros!!!
Thank You from America Texas. I was born in Ossett. Drive Ford 3 ton truck. This video “ awesome “. Brought back memories.
Cannot wait for more 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you.
Yes the best truck museum for history in a little town!

Excellent video again stavros

Great video stavros very interesting indeed next time I'm up visiting me sister up in Clayton brook I will pay a visit to the museum. Thanks again
Very interesting video, thankyou.
2003 worked in a place that old - well written Leyland magazines. Sorry i failed to keep any. Were old and fun.
Amazing stuff stavros
Stavros please make a video on ERF trucks fate.
Why don't you test drive a c series or e series so you can compare to modern trucks
Great video stavros, I drove past the museum a few months ago but was in to much of a hurry to get home now I'm kicking myself. 😢🇬🇧
Hi stavros
I didnt see a special model of Leyland trucks here that works in my country now
I'll send you its pictures
thanks😘
I used to spend so much time in here as a kid since its my home town and had the opportunity to work at Leyland Trucks it wasnt a major role it was simple as ensuring the bolts ect was never empty so putting code 125796 goes in 125796 tub as the chassis came down the line so i guess it was a important role ensuring the wrong parts wasnt being used to bolt what ever onto the chassis.
Cool, interesting, good video👍
It's sad we don't manufacture anything anymore, and that big international giants have bought up small fish and moved production abroad..... :(
anthony perkins Hey you need Trump as President. He gets the manufacturing back in the country where it belongs. 😳
So buy cars Made in UK like Nissan or Honda.
The problem is Communist China, they stole all manufacturing jobs!
Cummins 6BT 5.9 L engine. 12 valve engine also avaliable in Museum 💪💪💪💕💖💓❤️💝💃🎶
Keep saying I'm gunner go there I will make the effort now looks like a good day out cheers mate 👍👏👏✊
saw you at dungannon today, hope them trucks videos are coming soon!
I hate to say it but Paccar ate almost every British brand up, I miss the days were there were different manufacturers. In my time here on earth I seen so many manufacturers go out of business like Brockway, dimond T, autocar, Leyland, ERF, Foden and the list goes on and on.
Great video man
Went last year with me father in law . brilliant day out .
Very interesting used to deliver to the leyland factory
Nice video
In India we have Ashok Leyland Truck's any way Nice to see those trucks in the museum
Cool video Stavros, you have a new subscriber (I'm looking to get a rigid licence soon.) You would have made a great Guard; "Step outta that Vayhicle." :P
Seen you today at Granville truck run 👍
Sir, your vedios are so informative.i had learn so many things about trucks.like your smile so much..❤❤from pakistan
AL Thanks👍
That Foden is in my country and when I saw the day first I saw more the I looked at the front I saw the brand as Foden
Are you uploading the Dugannon trucks show
Conor Johnston In a few weeks
Wow Stavros to explore this trucks great job
And Stavros please tell me your age man please.
Love from India. Bro
Oh Stavros, it's been killing me to know. The video of the 2017 SCANIA S580 demonstrator that was blue/silver/purple. What was the name of the color of that truck? I really thought that was a beautiful truck.
Lets see some erf ec videos!
Before the era of consolidation and nationalisation in the UK truck industry, is it known what the typical top ten (or appropriate) ranking was among the notable marques in terms of truck and commercial vehicle production?
Hi. Geoff mentioned there is no more Beardmores left. We have one we owned. Need to ask Geoff would someone look at engine for us.
Hello Stavros!
Do you Think you will be able to take a look at the new Actros? Would be cool :)
Trucker Dashcam // Sweden I hope so, I’ll certainly do my best to get one to review👍
Saw u at the dungannon truck run but didn’t get a chance to say hello is that video coming out soon?
The Stop Motion Farmer Could be a while before it’s published👍
My one request Scania truck Museum please video
Like to see uk erf folden fair Lorries stavros

Curtis Hamilton Yes👍
Where was the Leyland tank??
Are ERF and foden related?

Are automatic gearboxes becoming more prevalent on European lorries?
If you get the chance speak to Mark Turner form chorley. He know's his stuff
Hope you're ok after the fall. 😂😂

DAF is Dutch, not British
Wiltshire beer reviews Good ale
Being a DAF employee in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, I have to say that DAF is a Dutch company. And has been so since 1928. All shares are now owned by PACCAR, from the USA and the Americans make good use of our engine development skills for the Peterbilt and Kenworth trucks.
All development on the XF and CF is done in Eindhoven, as were the old DAF 95 and 85-75-65 series. The 11 and 13 liter engines were newly developed and built in Eindhoven, the cabins of the XF and CF were designed in the Netherlands and are built in Belgium. Leyland builts the RHD chassis and assembles the RHD trucks and the smallest CF and LF’s with the Cummins engine. The LF’s are all built and designed in Britain, apart from the cab, that comes from Renault. DAF engines before 2005 had a Leyland heritage: originally, those DAF engines were a Leyland licenced product from about 1957. But these engines were completely changed ( turbo added, intercooling, higher volume, 4 valves per cilinder etc) over the years. Since Euro 4-5-6 a completely new design was needed. Automotive is not a case of being built in Britain or in the Netherlands, it is a global operation. That is what many people fail to understand. And the number of good automotive suppliers in the UK is, I am sorry to say, very limited.
Yes and no ! Daf trucks are built in Britain Holland and Belgium, but the parent company is Paccar , American . But i am well aware DAF was initially Dutch .
The Brits never .anything of any good scrap trucks and even bigger scrap cars
@G S W name one good car the brits made o I know go to ur nearest scrapyard and you'll find one
How many foreign trucks are in preservation not many there lying rusting in scrap yards to 🤔
Yes it’s true, but we are consistent in making nostalgic crap.
