Pete I thought you might like this, and anyway she's sure to need an upgrade by now !!! and chipping it to 1000hp is sure to help knock the acres out and you could tool on with those shocks and fancy seats

You will probably get half way through it Pete and then start changing the design!? The beauty of legoI haven’t even put the finishing touches to the real thing yet, and my family bought me this for my birthday a while back.

Where is all that stuff from? 40K for a 4CX digger with only 210 hours on the clock? Who owned that? The EA?
Looks Ex government Agency type stuff all those hook lift bodies and landroversThey wouldn't tell me when I phoned to ask about the sale. Seemed keen to keep client confidentiality.

Ask yourself why someone like Western power distribution would need pumps?
Don't know where western power distribution are or where they are based but they were round here last week helping out. Along with that list they would probably also need lots of low loader/transport vehicles to get all that off road gear to site.Look at the kind of equipment. Lots of off road vehicles, mobile type stuff and a lot of pumps and hoses. All of it barely used. Fairly serious plant- 4CX and a loading shovel as well.
This isn't the sort of thing an average water company or just any old electricity distributor would have. Ask yourself why someone like Western power distribution would need pumps?
It belongs to EDF Nuclear Generation Ltd, formerly British Energy. They run the UK's nuclear power stations. They bought it as part of their response to the tsunami that inundated Fukushima Daiichi.Top of the page it says-
