I think that was a hired unit. There must be a story behind it! I understand the location is on the Turkish-Iranian border at Bazargan.


Not too ancient…but a Brit

Ancient enough! That’s a classic picture. A fair few SA 400s did Middle East (Whittles springs to mind). OTS’s LHD ones were regulars.

The famous Big J before it was pulled apart

Blimey, not seen that one! :rofl: I reckon if we got all the available pics drivers took of that Guy, we’d be able to make a story board!

Is this the same one?


The trailer went over when the snow melted and the unit got damaged by a grader . . apparently . .
