It’s not that old, but I could not resist. What were the chances of that lot staying upright?
The odds of it happening are probably greater than those of it staying upright
Bit of a tricky recovery job, any lateral movement and that’s going to get a bit of a wobble on, I think a decent sized crane would be needed to get that back on terra firma in one piece.
Jethro turning up in an old MoD Crusader would probably ‘complicate’ things a little
Hi! If i don´t recall wrong they used two mobilecranes when they were recoverd,but it was some years ago so…

What happened? thats the M62, Junc 26
Is that a plastic cab ?
Yes -Atki’s had Glassfibre cabs
Deathtraps, they were. There is a scan of an Atkinson advert somewhere on here, saying that it was safer for the cab to collapse on impact, so that the driver could be thrown clear. What a load of tosh.
Any info on this ADR1? bales are never easy to load but they looked to be solid

I agree with the AEC bit i`m not sure but they look like china bales as they were known around our way solid heavy smaller bales … but i could be wrong
