Each truck is individually named. There are people who go Stobart spotting.

There are people who go base jumping. There are people who go swimming with sharks. There are people who collect belly button fluff.

I don't do those either.

arent most lorrys individually named as i know our local company D Steven and Sons each of their lorrys has a name

[buggyracer]

i remeber watching a programme a few years back about this firm and they make more money from there merchandise now than they do from there haulage business, and as you say they are a v large contractor.

There more female drivers out there and better drivers than male .

Stobarts wagons are named by there drivers, you have to be with them for quite a while before you get your own wagon and most of the drivers name them after their wives or daughters.- useless but interesting info I know! but one of my relatives drive for them and had the pleasure of naming his own truck.
