Quite right! I would say a 605 or a Pennine.

The firm I worked for in Devon,Beacon Plant, had all its machines painted white.The 3cx looked odd in white,they looked good when freshly painted but looked bad after a months work.

Here's one R-B that I spied on my way to the Isle of Wight last week. It was in operation on my way back through Southampton but we didn't stop.

I'm guessing a 10-RB? Looks too small to be much else.

I also spied this, an old Priestman crawler crane on a barge doing some work at Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight. No idea on the model ID of this one and I didn't manage to get any better shots of it either.

Look out that window, Eden isn't burning. Its burnt.
