Roundabout Route
70.814 and 6A65 had been on the move for 6 hours when they were photographed dropping down from Carmont on 17 May 2019. The 05:55 cement tanks from Oxwellmains to Craiginches took a roundabout route via Stirling and Perth, presumably to avoid weight restrictions over the Tay Bridge on the direct route to Dundee. The returning empties were routed over the bridges.
