The soil compactor is definitely a Ingersoll-Rand (now Volvo Road Machinery) machine.

Just as I thought but I wasn´t sure. I drove one of those rollers in a show at Volvo last tuesday. I was temporarily hired as a demo driver. I drove L25B, ECR38, EC25, ECR58 and that roller called SD122. First time ever driving a roller.

Volvo splashed out last year and bought the Road Development products business of I-R

If you follow the link and click on one of the product types in the table it still take you to the old I-R site.

Tone, the roller on SL730028.JPG, do you know what make it is? And what model?


I think that roller may be an Ingersoll Rand but I cant be sure :?

Nick :mrgreen:


You´re right Nick. It is an Ingersroll Rand compaktor. It is their colours.

I went past that many a time last year on holiday. Did you get any pics of John Jones 365BL on there or Stokeys 345BL ME? I got one out of the car window of the stokey machine but not any of the 365's
