The Marathon Dam is a gravity dam on the Charadros River, near its junction with the Varnavas Stream, 8 km (5 mi) west of Marathon and 45 km (28 mi) northeast of Athens in Greece. The dam created Lake Marathon for the primary purpose of municipal water supply. Constructed between 1926 and 1929, it was the sole supplier of water to Athens until 1959. The dam is often cited for its role in the modernization of Greece and the first recorded case of seismic activity associated with reservoir inundation. It was also designed to be symbolic of Ancient Greece, particularly Athenians and the Battle of Marathon.

Leyland Marathon 2 VPE441S was originally a demonstrator for Wadham-Stringer at Croydon. Subsequently purchased by Adams-Bristow Ltd for specialist low-loader/abnormal load work, mainly involving marine craft.
Purchased a short time before the company's demise, this vehicle was moved to an undercover storage location in the early 1990's and had remained there until recently, when it was started-up and made able to move under its own power. Seeing daylight for the first time in many years, it was washed-off and then returned to the shed to await a new owner, for whom restoration will be a relatively easy task.
