BYG167Y FODEN S108 J B SCHOFIELD

            Anne, the wife to be in the driving seat. I got this at Christmas 1982 and it went to work in the new year, it came out of the factory in Gilbert Chappells orange but they cancelled it, although they took a couple that were identical but with the Rolls 265L, I don't know why. Pelican took it to the site of our largest customer to see if it would fit - it did - thankfully! they took the coal body off and had  this body built to our spec at NMI - our first. It hadn't been registered and was new to us.
Initially I was a little disapointed with its performance but a week or so later I had a problem with the exhaust brake whilst tipping at Belle Vue stadium at Manchester, I tilted the cab - that was never straight forward with the S10, and found the butterfly valve exhaust was stuck, I sorted it put the cab down and away we went - and never looked back! it was a different motor, 80 mph here we come, a big difference from OYG258E S21 at 47 mph, which I had been on for 18 months - and we continued to own for quite a while before it ended up on the fairground circuit.
