Summary

Description

Model: Scania R 480 Highline Euro4 6X2/4 (R-Series 5) VIN: YS2R6X20002023226 1. Registration: 2007-02-16 Company: Bagers Transport, Hvidsten, Spentrup for Frode Lausen, Hørning (DK) Fleet No.: 7697 Nickname: - License plates: AF96982 (nov. 2009-jul. 2014) Previous reg.: UY94600 (feb. 2007-sep. 2009) Later reg.: n/a Retirement age: 7 y 5 mo Photo location: Motorway 501 (Aarhus Syd Motorvejen), Viby J, Aarhus, DK

I'm uploading two photos, taken 3 months apart, of this Scania. In the first one (this one) the truck seems to be hauling for Frode Laursen, but owned by Bagers Transport. There's also a Frode Laursen fleet number. Three months later, the Frode Laursen logos are gone and a Bagers Transport fleet number has been added, but the old one is still there as well.

My first thought was, that Bagers bought this Scania from Frode Laursen, but checking the vehicle data, there doesn't seem to have been any owner changes around this time, so Bagers probably operated for Frode Laursen initially, but stopped doing so in 2012.

There are two "Bager" hauliers in Hvidsten: "Karina Bager" at Hvidstenvej 35 and "Bagers Transport" (this company, aka Bager Transport), at Hvidstenvej 28! Although clearly connected by family relations, they each have individual company licenses.

Thankfully, the trucks are fairly easy to tell apart, not only are they clearly marked as either "Karina Bager" or "Bager's Transport", they also use different numbering formats: "MS"-prefixes for Bagers Transport, and "KA" for Karina Bager.

Going up the steep hill leading sw out of Aarhus past Viby and Stautrup. Underpowered and/or heavily loaded trucks often struggle here.

Tip: to locate trucks of particular interest to you, check my collections page, "truck collection" (<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/lavulv/collections/72157684190396672/">www.flickr.com/photos/lavulv/collections/72157684190396672/</a> ) - here you will find all trucks organized in albums, by haulier (with zip-codes), year, brand and country.

Retirement age for trucks: many used trucks are offered for sale on international markets. If sold to a foreign buyer, this will not be listed in the danish motor registry, so a "retired" truck may or may not have been exported. In other words, the "retirement age" only shows the age, at which the truck stopped running on danish license plates.
