While working on the road, killing time in the hotel room, I spend many, many (Oh far too many Teeth ) hours exploring every
nook and cranny of other demolition contractors' websites, but it wasn't until Brandenburg updated their site
this past weekend that I had seen these ones before.

(photos all from Brandenburg sorry for the large format )









Sorry Crane guys, betcha thought this was going to be a cookie thread...

you should known better coming from me Not talking

Thanks for sharing Eric! I know there's the Liebherr, but what's the other excavator? A Koehring?

Those Koering excavators look good in Brandenburg colors. I remember seeing a Brandenburg ad for machinery trader almost 10 years ago, and they where selling those Koerings. They where repainted in oem koering colors, and had the same setup as seen in the pics.

Indeed - always found it remarkable someone was filming when the Lampson came down. I imagine it was one of those life events that could stick with a person for some time... Sad

I guess the reality of the scene being gruesome, to the casual onlooker hadn't really occurred to me,
since twisted iron and concrete rubble is a sight I see on a daily basis.
