Yes Peter a very nice group there. Perhaps you are one of a very few that will have this livery era of machines in their collection, so sharing it with all of us in picture form allows a little bit of participation in that collection.
Thanks
Chris

Nice collection. Nice to see the mining side getting treated to some fine models for a change.
Though i'm sure you have potsed before, any chance of a few pics of that cabinet containing the dragline next to those other models in there for size comparison?

WOW again Peter, thanks for your pics. I'm actually interested in a Keim built family photo if possible? I appreciate the effort you go to pull out, arrange and snap all of your pics. I was looking at coming over to Perth late Jan for a week but I don't think it's going to work out now. Anyway cheers mate! Rowan.

Thanks again.
I have a couple of 495's myself, so I kinda get a feel for the size comparison in there, but that dragline's in a class of its own. BIG!

Peter,
A great display of very fine models. Bucyrus and TWH would be very happy looking at this! Good to see you today and see these models first hand. Vistiing you and seeing your incredible collection makes me think I am still normal....hahahahaha

I will get over there one day Tim and would be good to meet yourself, Peter & Shaun. I have not made it to Bob Swords in a while but he tells me he has a heap of new models of which i am sure similar to Peters, certainly saw his 8750 when there last time and those suckers sure take up some real estate!!
