Nice clip on Look East this lunchtime. Might be repeated this evening so if you tune to Look East you might see it.

Its a lovely story, I always like local vehicles going back to where they come from. We have just repatriated an old lorry from Cambridge back to Somerset where she was first registered and used.

Shetland is a long way from Glasgow.

It was new to the Scottish CWS in 1950, but I suppose it became an island favourite later having been with at least 2 companies in Shetland, Johnson of Scalloway and J Watts of Reawick
