If they are anything like the ex-Baldwin 144-530 150tonner that we bought through Scania Heathrow i hope they have very well stocked wallett’s, the biggest pile of xxxxxxx xxxx we ever had the misfortune to be involved with.

over here in new zealand there are loads of them, if you want to run at max weight of 44 tonne without getting a permit i think you have to have 4 axle tractor unit and 4 axle trailor, im new over here though so stand corrected if im wrong (and i usually am)

Nick some daylight pictures of the yellow 8 legger sent to me by Graham Wilson of H.C.Wilson. I would think you would have to charge some
serious rates to make this beast pay.The stainless steel alone would pay off my mortgage. regards Big Al
