Today in Road Transport, 27 August 2008

After yesterday's glut of bad news, things seem a little brighter today: removals firms are surviving the downturn in the housing market, fashion logistics specialist Advanced hopes to help struggling operators back into profit, and Bibby Distribution is confident of a strong performance in 2008.

But for those who want it, we do have more on the collapse of business-to-consumer parcel carrier Amtrak.

In the blogs today, Will Shiers admires the Blue Shark custom Scania from Swedish firm Svempa, BigLorryBlog is 'in the pink' with some fetchingly coloured Daf LF45s, and Oliver Dixon wonders why Mahindra needs an extra six months to test its US-bound pickup.

After all that, I do believe it's time for a nice piece of Stralis cake...
