Albion yes, but lighter than Chieftain 5-6.5 tons I think

No positive identification of these Joe Lyons vans yet but Claymore chosen previously.

Claymore introduced 6th November 1953 FT25N 3-Ton and FT27N 4-Ton (same other than tyre size).

johnfromStaffs wrote In view of the amount of information on the internet about Lyons as a company, I would have expected someone to have posted a fleet list, but couldn't find one.


Sunbar wrote Agreed the J. Lyons & Co. vehicles would seem to be an obvious fleet to document in detail not least because of their well known livery. Like you, I have found little about the vehicles themselves, even in the likes of flickr websites.


We now have 8 identified Lyons things, 4 of which are these Albion Claymores. The search continues - onwards and upwards .....

The 1962 order for 13 were for a later underfloor engined model not the 1954-1957 version seen here (as the earlier comment in the link).

No definite order for J.Lyons in 1953-4 has been found so far.

Increased to 12 Trucks and vans, plus other background vehicles only referred to in the comments, after adding the name 'Lyons'.
