A line up of trucks at the Denny's premises in Morgan Street, Waterford (?) Pigs and their products have featured here over the years as pig slaughtering and processing has long been a major industry in Waterford and Denny's were one of the biggest. The interest in this shot must be on the trucks, their makes and models?
Hopefully Denny's are not gone altogether from Waterford as Barbour's are gone from Lisburn.
Thank you for all the work on that yesterday, it was very entertaining to watch the story unwind!

24 June 1938 was a Friday ... Edit Probably a fry day.

two of the trucks, with the longer bonnets, might be Austin 12/4 pickups dating to mid 1930s ....

ah Denny's sausages were essential part of a healthy fry-up

Streetview of Morgan Street near Ballybricken. Not sure where the yard was...

OK, the whole south side of Morgan Street was a Bacon Curing Establishment on the 25", where the Supervalu is on the streetview. If you look at the roofline on this streetview, we see the same chimney pattern from behind in today's shot.

Does anyone notice something different about two of the five trucks?

split windscreen ? it was not possible to make full length screens until later, the two shorter trucks appear to be older

Denny's are still very much around Here's their website denny.ie/story/#year-henry_denny "A defining moment in Dennys history arrived in 1933 at an International Food Fair in Manchester, when Denny was awarded a gold medal for making the finest sausages, which is now in the Waterford Museum of Treasures. This gave birth to the Denny Gold Medal Sausage that we know and love today."

The trucks with the longer bonnets/snouts have been telling porkies.

WI1724 and the one to its' left on the end look a generation more modern and streamlined than WI1722 and WI1723 despite the sequential registrations. I wonder if they were bought right at the model changeover? On closer inspection they're different weight classes, 4 has eight-lug wheels while 2 and 3 have six-lugs. So Lord Nuffield dragged his feet applying a redesign across the whole line I guess.
