Becher had 2 D8K's on this reclamation job of Cheetham Hill's at Plank Lane;Wigan during summer of 2010.
One of mine during late 80's/early 90's at Darnconner North,near Cumnock.it's a D8H.
Another one of mine nearly upside down!.Taken at Wimpey Minings Rigg Farm site during summer of 1991 near Sanquar.
Some of R.J.Levacks 769B's at Coleston Minings Crawik site in Ayrshire during 1992.These were in good order and came in handy for many jobs.
Last pic is a mishap at A.F.Budges BerryHill pit heap restoration job in Stoke about 1970.My father was on a 627 here.
I would just like to state that Plank Lane is in LEIGH not pie land lol
