Machine Graveyard

Post #1 by Nick Drew » Sun Sep 30, 2007 8:40 pm

Here are some shots of machines at my friends plant sales yard that have come to the end of the road and are now being broken for spares .....Always sad to see I think :cry: :cry:

When you think that these machines were once someones pride & joy !!

One thing that always amazes me is just how many machines there must be lying around the world like this?? Come on guys lets see your dead machinery photos here!!

Hi Niklas,

The shovel is an old Poclain 220, I have already posted some shots of her in the Excavators thread "Poclain Vive Le France".

Good old machine in its day!!
