Re: akerman
Great selection of pictures Richard! I think that Bradshaw's used an H25A or B up in Loch Kishorn, Scotland where it remained. If you can get hold of and post some pics, would really like to see.
Cheers.

Re: 793C and D-Series
Hey Mike. Unfortunately it's not a good idea for me to reveal where they are located, but I can tell you that they are being loaded by 1 x P&H 4100A and 2 x 4100C rope shovels. It’s hard going but they load in 3-passes maximum and in less than 2 mins. :) It’s difficult to show you the loading eq...

Re: Bauma 2010
