Yes stuck. Komatsu PC80-1.

Owner Mr Trevor Blenkiron who is now mostly seen at the Digger competitions.

They were draining a peat swamp which turned out to be quite a success. I think it was pulled out by the grunty International BTD6.

Typically in that era early 80,s most farm work contractors had come from 5 ton machines then to 7 ton, now it’s mostly 12 ton.

Trevor kept his gear in very neat and tidy condition and you can see he is taking care getting back in that no dirt gets inside. I think he ate his lunch (peanut butter sammies) off the floor.

The digger weighed in at 7.7 ton and powered by Komatsu 4D105 making a whole 60HP.

What a pity Attach2 wasn’t around then with their A2Lock hitch.
