Lost interest in it a while ago Jeremy ,I am a day one subscriber , intend to cancel sub and get one of the Classic Truck mags instead when I get round to it
S'pose one problem is getting the writers for what is a fairly esoteric subject.
My interest is in the smaller type stuff seen on sites, mixers , dumpers , backhoe ,Fork lifts , mini diggers ( with us for 30 odd years now) but CPM seems to have a lot of quarry stuff and indeed
new !!! plant featured . Funnily enough the modern kit mag Earthmovers seems to have endless quarry stuff as well, surely more kit is sold into the construction market than the quarry market ?
With the dozens of deceased British plant makers there must be an article or two in Winget , Barford, Benford , Liner , Johnson , Rob Roy , Whitlock, Priestman, Muir-Hill , Chaseside , Bray , Bonser , Sanderson , Coles ,Hydrocon, Allen, etc etc
It would also be nice to see articles from people who used the kit back in the day , but again it's finding them I suppose. There must be thousands of people who have worked in plant hire with a tale or two to tell .
Also would not mind more articles on construction trucks , Smaller Tippers ? Builders pick ups through the ages ? they all seem to have new Warrior's or Isuzu's these days but remember when a right motley selection of Commer Bedford Morris etc were seen.
I know there has been some articles on things mentioned above , like Drott and Hy-Mac for instance !
But one man's meat...............
