Clarke Babcock

[carl roy]

Clarke Babcock will be known only to a few of the Ontario Car Haulers of the past. But I must announce his funeral in Odessa Ontario Saturday.
Clarke and his late brother Grant both drove for Charlton Transport Ltd and Motor Carriers Ltd. The Brothers ran the split operation out of Ganaoque Ontario.
As a personal note they were great people to know and very professional drivers. Both the Charlton Family and Bill Hayball of M.C.L used the brothers for trying out new configuration on Equipment.
Clarke was the driver in the 70s for the testing of equipment for a permit to allow a set of trains on the 401.
For various reasons the M.T.C. turned down the application.
