Hi Roly,
When was this filmed,would you know that?
Looking at them loading.............wouldn't it be worth ripping that before loading?

Cheers,

Peter

Thanks for posting my video Roly, just taking the clay off to let us in to the rock which was ripped by a Komatsu 155. To near to houses to blast. Tha earth moving contracyor was James Moore, who ran 18 TS24s 2D9Hs, about 6 Komatsu 155s, plus gradders, dumpers, excavaters etc.

Great pictures Noel thanks for posting. I remember years ago passing the workshops in Ballyclare and seeing all sorts of heavy plant in the yard. There was always a few ex-military Bedfords there to waiting to be used as service wagons. What happend to James Moore Earthmoving. He had a fleet of scrapers on the channel tunnel project. I remember reading about them in an old copy of Truck and Driver.

Hi Barry,
