Описание книги

Every year on the first Sunday in August, hundreds gather to see one of the greatest displays of historic commercial vehicles. First organised in 1969, the Trans Pennine Run attracts an annual entry of around 200 vehicles coming from all over the UK.The event starts at Birch Services on the M62 at Manchester at about 7.30 in the morning and runs for 64 miles via Rochdale, Halifax and Bradford, taking in some of the finest Yorkshire scenery along the way. From 11.30 the vehicles start arriving at the famous Harrogate Stray where they are then displayed to the public.Avid photographer, Roy Dodsworth has been following the event since the late 1990s and has a collection of over 3000 images taken there. This book collects together 262 of Roy's favourite truck photos, including a bit of history about each of the vehicles – many of which have been restored to their original livery. The Trucks of the Trans Pennine Run is a must-have for any driver who has ever participated in the run. Current and former truckers and anyone else with an interest in transport history will all enjoy being reminded of these beautiful old vehicles.

A Photographic History

Roy Dodsworth

.....

The success of the first run ensured that it has been repeated every year since. The main change at the Harrogate end is that the finishing point has moved to The Stray, although on occasion, due to weather, the location has moved to the grounds of a local college.

The start has been moved several times, including to Salford University (1971), Belle Vue Manchester (1972 to 1978), GMT buses Hyde Road garage (1978 to 1988), ADT auction centre (1989 and 1990), Astley Green Colliery Museum (1991 to 1999), Popular Truck Stop at Lymm (2000 and 2001) and then Birch Motorway Services M62 from 2002 to present.
