Gore’s Main St was packed on Saturday as 68 of the finest trucks in the region paraded around town as part of the McDonough Contracting Gore Truck Show.

After first gathering at the Transport Repair yard for judging, they hit the streets to show off their stuff, finishing at the Croydon Lodge later in the afternoon for prizegiving.
