TDS Liebherr 984

Post #1 by argie » Sat Oct 11, 2008 10:37 pm

Not as big as Colemans, but interesting none the less. Photographed at Liverpool docks today was this Liebherr R984 belonging to TDS of Liverpool ready to decomission the HMS Intrepid.

Long boom and a short dipper. Is it used with some kind of hydraulic shearer? That would explain the strange bom/dipper combo.
You know that we expect more photos, dont you? :D :thumbs_up:

Martyn I quite agree with you it does pee me off that we don't preserve more of our heritage, all for the sake of the "tat man" I always thought it was criminal that we never preserved one of our WW11 battleships, the biggest preserved warship we have is the light cruiser HMS Belfast.
