Not so impressive Mervyn, the honours should really go to Messrs Richard Robinson and Alfred Meyer. Two very learned people in the field of Crawler Tractors.

Best regards, Dave:

Came across this unusual one - The Allrad name rings a bell - possibly the same company that Krammer was related to in later years?

China is probably the fastest developing country at present - However if they attempt to sell unusual earthmovers like this then I think the competition would have nothing to worry about. :insomnia: Still- I do love these child-like, dated designs - can you imagine turning up on site in one :lol:

Just realised you're a fellow County Antrim man Mervyn :thumbs_up: Do you know the infamous Jim Morton from partytime down your direction? I used to have a corporate entertainment business a few years ago and one of the ways I was able to release my digger passion was to do digger driving challenges (long before the diggerland thing) Jim booked me a few times with the digger challenge - God! the general public in a digger was just a nightmare :dizzy:
