Re: S.E. Davis
Hi john
Any Idea how many machine they have in the "Collection" as opposed to the work fleet and the Komatsu Stock thats parked up.
I counted (estimated over 200) when there last year at the Vintage show. that was just in the Yard and the two sheds.
I see they have started sheeting some up for the winter there. Theres even a floating suction dredger behind the shed !
The sheds packed that tight its hard to see whats in them even when stood up on the tracks.
I started a list from the CP&M articles and some of what I saw, but you could spend all day just trying to work out whats in the sheds letalone the yards. they have more machines than i've got plant & tractor books
Hi Jeremy some of your photos look like similar to mine But you have also got some good stuff there that I missed (or maybe its 'new' ).
Is That a Russian dozer there (Photo above the Euclid in last batch)
Can anybody Identify the Big International in the 2nd photo, if thats the one behind the shed ?
Theres at least 2 Bristol Europa's in the middle of that block of machines and a JD tracked shovel by all the scrapers.
Keep the pictures coming Jeremy as always see something different in the backgrounds
Cheers
Dave

Re: S.E. Davis
Hi All,
Well still loads of pics to post in this section, so I'll post a few more now.
Yes Dave that is a Russian machine in the one picture and I must agree with John its one fantastic toy collection, just the sort of thing I would have done if I had been blessed with that kinda money.

Yes Martyn, I for one have never seen anything like it before in my life, I took around 200 pics there.
There were pieces of kit there that I know nothing about and some so old that Noah probably used em to build the Ark
Still great that they survive even if they don't work better than seeing them cut up for scrap
