Construction services firm NWH Group has taken delivery of nine MAN TGS 32.400 8x4 tippers, which are being used for its contract on the Borders Railway Project.
The new sleeper-cabbed trucks join four other MAN 8x4s, taking spoil from the project site to NWH's quarry and returning with stone.
Dalkeith-based NWH took its first MAN trucks – six tractor units – in 2010, followed by four 8x4s for its tipper fleet. Fuel efficiency and reliability prompted the decision to order nine more, according to Mark Williams, managing director.
The muck-away specification MAN 8x4s have steel outreach bodies, Edbro tipping gear, on-board weighing equipment and rollover 'Easy Sheets'.
The latest 8x4s have been supplied on a five-year hire purchase deal through MAN Financial Services.
