“The family owned business of J.R. Adams is now into their third generation.  As part of the Tyneside haulage scene for over seventy years, they currently operate a fifty strong fleet on warehousing, distribution and general haulage, throughout the UK.  The company founder James Robertson Adams – or Jakey as he was normally called – relied on traditional horse power for his first coal round in the eastern suburbs of Newcastle.  Buying British become an Adams standard and of all the vehicles they’ve operated, Jakey’s favorite was the Crusader.  From the mid seventies, the company had about twenty of these distinctive Scammells and as far as Jakey was concerned, he would have nothing wrong said about them.”*
