One of the few key machines that Fastline must have earmarked as ones that werent to be scrapped during the recent disposals here... but will any of them actually see any more use? Doubtful I'd say!

This one isnt yet! Maybe because of the size? you'd need a big trailer! or more probably cut on site? Worth keeping an eye on...

Shame belting machine. The Diesel Hammer was rather loud!! It Installed all the Piled foundations on the ECML electrification. Now deemed redundant as prob rather expensive to use- cost of loco etc to bring into possession. The new ones used on the WCML are mounted on MPV's so self propelled, Jarvis now operate these piling machines on behalf of NWR since the demise of the GTBBJV.
