Hi Ian And Tim.
Yes, the same companty, thanks for the pic. :thumbup:B J stood for Brian & John, I can't remember their surnames.
Their yard was on The Western Ind. Estate , Caerhhilly.
I had taken thousands of cu.m. of peat out of that site and put in a few thousand tons of as dug stone fill for an earlier project, but the client ran out of funds. :doh:
B.J. ran about 30 JCB 3Cs as well as the Dynahoes and a couple of Priestman 90 ducks which they later replaced with (four :think: :?: ) Priestman 150s.

There was an article on those dynahoe machines in Classic Plant & Machinery last year and that Caerphilly company machine was in the article.
