P.S,once worked with a very nice D9N operator of Stokey's called Gerry Onions.A real professional pilot who looked after his tractor and could put it to work.

Fenton Colton sold the D8 and Boxes a couple of years ago now

First of Bank's 777F's are starting to turn up........... in kit form.

wen will the 777 be ready

Am looking forward to seeing these new 777F's when they arrive, When i spoke to Chris the other week when i was up at the Shotton site he said he'd let me on site and get some pics

I bet you are looking forward to getting your new machine Robrh120? Will it be the Komatsu Pc3000 or an O&K?

Was going to visit the Shotton site tomorrow but the weather is supposed to be bad all day so i may be up on Friday!

Had a look up to the Shotton site today (fri) and took another film full of machines from 740's to Stockeys D9T to the old 631 and 637's. I saw the 777's working over the far side of the site and fancied a look over but am not sure if you can get near without crossing the site!

Those 777's have got to be the ultimate meccano kit it would be the kind of job where you would look forward to going to work.

What were you working on today robrh120? i was kicking about near to where the 740 and colton D6 were working and then ventured down to where the dozer and scraper were working.
