Nice photos Steve the last two complete with Hymac 580C machines, the one appears to be stuck and the Liebherr machine with it also appears to be danger of becoming bogged.

Great photos Steve the last two of the demolition of what looks like an old railway bridge with the brickwork arches, what a shame class architecture there compared with what we have today, must have taken some building too, couple of Hy-mac 580C machines on that job. The large Poclain on the back of the low-loader with Mc Alpine on it is an HC300.

Re: Classic pictures Updated 23/02/2020
I'm curious about the upended dumper sequence...
The first two pics appear to be a Ford 4000 - Surely too small for a Goose dumper?
Now the recumbent County 100-4, I can't see a hitch mechanism. There isn't a normal drawbar or any lift arms which, if my hazy memory right, is correct for a Goose, but there doesn't seem to be any kind of coupling at all. I thought the pin hitch system stood clear behind the axle and bolted up into the standard hitch holes in the casting.
Any Shawnee-Poole or Goose officionados enlighten me???

If a LandRover doesn't leak oil, it's run out.

Apparently a TD24
