A lovely period photo from around 1977 showing some of Gardiner Brothers assorted fleet. The yard was at the end of a road and had Railway lines one side and the
Grand Union Canal the other. There was a very large amount of land for vehicle storage, which meant Gardiners had a legendary collection of old vehicles. In this shot
can be seen a TK with Harvey Frost manual twin cable lift, a TK with Holmes (or Bulldog) 680 twin boom ERF with 750 twin boom AEC with twin boom and what is
thought to be a 4x4 Oshkosh ex USAF with probably a Garwood or Holmes twin boom.  Picture courtesy of John Harrington
