    We actually did move it along.

    The two defenders straitened the train and then we used a third vehicle to move the rig to a high and dry place. He was from Warina Station and only a few hours out from returning home. The clay was far to slippery for the vehicle.

    The driver reakons it weighs about 50 ton ish.

    Hi TwoUp,

    You should probably send the photo's to Land Rover, maybe they could use them in a future promotion, who knows, you could get something out of it.

    As Phoenix said, huge effort, good to see.

    Lol, kinda like the one for the F trucks (but real) or with the two nissans pulling against each other (but real).

    To coin another phrase "I'd like to see that!"

    There are two types of people in this world, good and bad. The good sleep better, but the bad seem to enjoy the waking hours
