Fascinating, as Spock would say. There's plenty of rif-raf around here we could use it on, especially on Friday nights.

Means of course that I shall have to adjust my tunnel heights.

Well, I've seen the racing one, the dancing ones and now I've seen the railway one!

I wonder if anyone has thought to use a JCB for digging holes in roads?

All  the  ones  i've  seen  doing  roads Tom  theres  usually one operator  and  two supervisors leaning on shovels  chatting  to  the  operator  

Anyone contemplating  building one of these  might find  the   diagrams  in  this  link  helpful

cick  on  view  patent  images there  and  register it allows access  to  the drawings  of machinery.

I wonder why they say it's unique in their promotional video?  It's just a JCB on top of a waggon!
