Hope you do a better job of putting it together than whoever did mine! I gave up trying to repair it as my fat fingers and trembling paws appeared to be doing more damage than fixing............... :)

It doesnt look in too bad shape.

What else you got stashed away in the back of the garage?

Didn't even know such a thing like that existed in model form :insomnia: it's a good one too :thumbup:

Ian, great pics of the actual machine, take it that was taken at the denby site?? If memory serves, weren't that site on left of the main road between Marehay and Denby??
Cheers

Hi Luke,
The pictures were taken at St Aidens near Leeds after 2 of the machines had been moved from Denby. Miller had 3 195B's on Kirk site at Denby which was on both sides of the main road linked by a road bridge capable of carrying 2 fully laden Cat 785's at one time - will have to get the bridge demolition pics scanned in.

Oh right Ian, thanks for the information :thumbup: where the industrial estate is now then? Is that where the bridge was? I can actually remember my dad telling me that the trucks went over a bridge always tried to figure out where it was, makes sense now it's not there :doh: :oops:
Cheers
