Excellent photos, you can keep adding them for me. :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:

I like the greedy boards on the front of the trucks, are they a John Jones design? What does that push the payload up to i wonder? :mrgreen:

Not to sure what trucks they have now, I believe they may have moved on to Kent way when they finnished Baldock, but not certain.
ALSO NOT TO UP ON THE BOARDS EITHER. But would not suprise me if they did,they adapted the Buckets on the 365 ex themselves. Come to think they were delivered to them new for the job in that spec!
Think they said payload of about 50-60 tons.Very wet chalk!
Post other plant tomorrow. Would there be any interest for pics of the By pass being developed?
Do not want to bore anyone!
