  • retirement date very recent, so may still return to service.

This Scania is what I call a "cradle-to-grave" photo subject, meaning that I've followed it from the very start to the very end. First encounter was in september 2013, when it was just one month old, and in the years that followed it became one of my most frequent photo subjects of all, ending with a total of almost 30 different encounters. Unfortunately, when picking photos for upload, I found the early photos to be so inferior, compared to the later ones, that I just couldn't justify using any of them: bleak, unsharp, partially blocked views etc... just didn't work, so I've chosen 4 photos from the later stages, 2017-18.

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.
