NORTHLINK Working in Oxfordshire

Post #1 by taurus MK1 » Sun Nov 01, 2009 9:02 pm

:D Hi, these photos were taken along time ago probably 12 years. The job was the construction of a resevoir for a golf club near Oxford. I was invited to have a look after we fixed the guy up at work on a Friday afternoon with a drawbar pin to get him through the weekend. His had broken in two so we did a bit of blacksmithing. Within half an hour of arriving at the site i was in control of my first big CAT :rockon: she was struggling on the Oxford clay due to worn plates,this was to be rectified before its next job.

I cant remember the guys name, he might even frequent this forum?? what happended to the D9, i can remember him saying he did alot of reinstating of opencast sites?

Thanks for the chance of a great drive of a Great CAT

Cheers John :wave:
