Photographed this one outside a local brick factory. Been sat there for years. Thinking of making a 1/24th scale model of it.

Thought I knew it, but not an area I general drive round usually on the M1 (may have been when I went to the breakers at Blackerhill (whose name escapes me now ))
Looks a tidy machine, Hope it dosent suffer the fate of a lot of the Old Corporate gate displays of suddenly being declare no use / unsafe and vanishing when they shut the place down or restructure.

Re: Ruston Bucyrus Cranes/Draglines.
Hi all I've only recently found this site and thought these pics fit in . they were taken in Colchester Ct. Last year. I find the posts here interesting as I was stationed in the UK in th eearly 80's with a Heavy construction squadron at RAF Wethersfield in Essex but thats another story. enjoy ths pics if they upload.

Welcome to CMN Steve
Looks like a great little sand pit for playing with the toys. Look like some tidy machines there.
