There are two rules for success: 1. Never tell everything you know.

TII, hopefully they will do some Aus spec Schuerele platforms. They will look good behind a big Aussie KW!

I'm hoping for one of those huge slagpot carriers for the steel industry. I'm actually pretty sure that (or someting like that) will be the launch model as well. The press release did state it would be one of Kamag's premium products. We'll just have to wait.

I first heard of Kamag waaaaay back when,I can remember about half the pack of cards were Kamags,will be frothing at the mouth for whats to come

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.

Something like that Graham. If I'm not misstaken, they use the tractor part of a Caterpillar scraper. At least the older types did.

So now that we have two thirds of the the trinity that is TII, can a Nicolas announcement be far behind? Can you imagine a diecast Tractomas at a sensible price?
