Amazing pictures Chris. I must say you have some stunning pictures in your collection. When I get my 1/50 scale RB-22 dragline, I'll be painting it in Short bros colours.

Great pics Chris,
I remember Shorts had some kit on hire to Amec Mining at their Blindwells occs near Edinburgh some years ago, they had a Liebherr R974, Komatsu dozer possibly 375 and a 16g grader
