Paul A,

There are a few pictures of Gottwald AK680 in Sarens livery and its previous liveries in:

Go to "Cranes" then "Gottwald".
I hope it helps.

Hi Paul, although you probably have plenty of
great photos to help you now I thought I'd add
some of mine I took in December at Carlisle.
I'm looking forward to seeing your finished model
I've thought of doing exactly the same myselfTeeth

thats one tasty display there Mark!!! always get a kick out of seeing your babies on display

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

^^^I understand your thinking Paul Cool , but the 680 would make a sensational diecast model. A crane of historical importance AND it would be a rare addition to the very few (model) lattice boom wheeled cranes available. Sensational pics of both Mark's model and the real thing in both threads...
