Operation Plant New DVD - The Link

[whitesnipe]

Following on from Primetime's first DVD Mad About Classic Plant comes the second installment Operation Plant. We return to the quarry at Sibbertoft to see more vintage and classic caterpillar equipment in action. This time they are shaping and pushing soil in the upper half of the quarry. But this time they had to contend with the wet conditions of 2012 and drainage channels had to be cut in the bottom of the quarry before the muck shifting could begin. We see all of the earth moving action, which this event has become famous for, but this time with more on board cameras fitted to the equipment. Narrated by Alan Stennett. £15.95 Approx 80 mins.

Front cover Paul Badger (Warwick) driving his Caterpillar 951C and Clive Grey operating Caterpillar D4H.
DVD out in November

I like Alan Stennetts narration on these DVD's informative and not crammed with too many facts.Looking forward to seeing it.

No chance..........I'm really rather shy!

Trying to get hold of a grader at the mo' so I can give you a run for your money!!!

[Jim M]

A run for my money! I've only been on it about a year and half and now i 've got the new 3cx i'm between the two so less time to learn, so now you'll be catching me up mate , Plus i can't use the pin puller as the boss got the fitter to borrow Finning's magic box to turn it off ,so now no swing the blade up the side and grading off the bump banks .How am i supposed to learn all the functions now .
Also herd that it came back with a bad oil sample from the trans ,so don't know if they are going to repair before any major prob or get another machine. I wouldn't mind a M series though .
