Drotts in the Undergrowth

Post #1 by Ian Fletcher1970 » Sun Dec 05, 2010 8:13 pm

I came across these this afternoon - about half a mile from home whilst walking the dog :D There's at least 2 machines and assorted other bits of plant. Sorry about poor picture quality - they`re taken through a hedge on my phone :shifty:
Will try and get some better ones when the weather improves :D

Surprising how many you see about now the hedges are so thin but by the time you spot them your past especially on the Motroway or A1 at 70 and unable to stop and take photos ( and the co pilots not very good at taking quick snaps from a moving vehicle) :(
Interested in Tractors, Plant, Heavy Haulage or Steam visit http://tractors.wikia.com/wiki/Tractor_%26_Construction_Plant_Wiki
Help document every manufacturer model build, and record every machine in preservation, clubs and events etc.

I know what you mean about seeing machines on the motorway! I see so many classic backhoes and more recently ive been seeing more and more old cat dozers and scraper boxes in the fields and stuff around me! I think i even saw an old grader in a hedge near worksop a few days ago!
