Pre-bankrupcy livery.

Niels Jensen Maskintransport (machinery transport) was established in 1992 and declared bankrupcy in 2013 before finally being resolved in 2015. Some assets, like this Scania, were taken over by BMS and continued to run in the original Niels Jensen livery, only with the BMS-name added on the doors. Photos uploaded of both the pre- and post-bankrupcy livery.

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"  - 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.
