G Reg Foden
1989-90
G-reg Foden 3000-SERIES S104, 4000-SERIES-cabbed,Boxvan-bodied,
short wheelbase, 4x2,Showmans Diesel Road Locomotive, G401. This is
an early 3000-Series model, thus it has the 4000-Series cab. Later
3000-Series models had, -from l992 -, their own narrower 3000-Series
cabs. This particular Foden was originally powered by a Cummins
C-Series diesel engine, but it was not powerful enough for Roger,
so he re-engined the Foden with a Cummins LT10-250 diesel in early
2000. The engine produces a healthy 250 BHP. The Foden has a Fuller
gearbox and a Rockwell rear drive axle. This lorry has been in service
with Roger Tuby since 1998 -it was originally a tractive unit -
and pulls his childrens ride.
