In the 1940's the Road Haulage Executive, trading as British Road Service (BRS), was created as part of a remarkable plan to nationalise transport across the UK. BES began to generate its own business as the state run transport system was beginning to suffer. By the 1970s BRS Truck Rental was launched. The fleet of vehicles, with their distinctive red & blue arrowhead logo as featured on this VW van, were soon a common sight across the British road network. This model has the registration GJJ 880N.
