Hi john

Any Idea how many machine they have in the "Collection" as opposed to the work fleet and the Komatsu Stock thats parked up.

I counted (estimated over 200) when there last year at the Vintage show. that was just in the Yard and the two sheds.

I see they have started sheeting some up for the winter there. Theres even a floating suction dredger behind the shed !

The sheds packed that tight its hard to see whats in them even when stood up on the tracks. ;)

I started a list from the CP&M articles and some of what I saw, but you could spend all day just trying to work out whats in the sheds letalone the yards. they have more machines than i've got plant & tractor books :shock:

Hi Jeremy some of your photos look like similar to mine ;) But you have also got some good stuff there that I missed (or maybe its 'new' ).

Is That a Russian dozer there (Photo above the Euclid in last batch)

Can anybody Identify the Big International in the 2nd photo, if thats the one behind the shed ?

Theres at least 2 Bristol Europa's in the middle of that block of machines and a JD tracked shovel by all the scrapers.

:thumbs_up: Keep the pictures coming Jeremy as always see something different in the backgrounds

Cheers

Dave

Yes Martyn, I for one have never seen anything like it before in my life, I took around 200 pics there. :)
There were pieces of kit there that I know nothing about and some so old that Noah probably used em to build the Ark :lol:
Still great that they survive even if they don't work better than seeing them cut up for scrap :thumbs_up:
