The JCB Display Team, more commonly known as the "Dancing Diggers" performs across the length and breadth of the country and is recognised as one of the top arena attractions available.
The team has appeared on television many times, showcasing the amazing abilities of the machine operators as they push their diggers to the absolute maximum of their capabilities.
The team comprised of 4 giant JCB 3CX diggers and one 527-55 loadall.
The four JCB's in the team weigh 8.5 tonnes each and cost in excess of £48,000 each.
The Display Team drivers perform dare devil stunts and formation digger dancing. During a performance accompanied by music they push the machines and themselves to the limit, thrilling audiences of all ages.
The stunts performed are not only very difficult, but are also very dangerous, and must, under no circumstances be attempted by anyone in the audience!
Whilst on location the team provided a static display for the public which was very popular
The Machines
527-55 LOADALL
The JCB 527-55 is a hugely efficient Dieselmax-powered Loadall. It’s powerful, productive, manoeuvrable, comfortable and safe.
3CX Eco
The JCB 3CX is the world’s number one backhoe loader (along with the JCB 4CX). The 3CX is a product of JCB’s efficient design philosophy, responding to today’s rising fuel prices and environmental concerns with class-leading efficiency and low running costs. In short, innovative technologies have been applied to squeeze the absolute maximum out of every drop of fuel on the JCB 3CX Eco.
The Company
The firm was founded by Joseph Cyril Bamford in October 1945 in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, England.
The JCB logo dates from 1953; from 1960 the company typewriters were given an extra key to render it accurately. The logo was designed by Leslie Smith, and is off-set at 18 degrees from the horizontal and 22 degrees from the vertical - the angles Joe Bamford liked.
To demonstrate his faith in the hydraulic failsafes on JCB machines (which lock the arms in the event of a loss of hydraulic pressure, preventing them from crashing to the ground), Joe Cyril Bamford arranged to have several backhoes raise themselves up on their arms, and drove his car beneath them.
This has since developed into a world famous demonstration of the versatility of the backhoe configuration. The JCB display team (JCB Dancing Diggers) tour agricultural shows and produce videos, showing some of the unusual ways in which such vehicles can support themselves or manoeuvre. For example, it is quite common for drivers to support the vehicle on both buckets, either for turning on the spot without damaging ground, or for spinning the tracks in a puddle to clean them. The display team expanded this concept into a sort of vehicle gymnastics. The drivers are members of JCB's demonstration team, who visit prospective customers and demonstrate machines on the customer's property in order to prove the machine's suitability for the task at hand.

The full reach of the embedded crane is quite remarkable allowing to grap stuff a few meters away from the ship.
Not bad for one day's work.
We decided our next major house project was to redo our driveway. It has been terrible since we bought the house. 2/3 destroyed blacktop & 1/3 sunken concrete that made for a flooding hazard during the rain. Weeds all over, hard to shovel or snowplow. No fun for bikes or toys for the children. Tripping hazard for everyone. We actually decided to redo it a while ago but other things came first. We would have made it straight since we didn't own the backyard yet. But the two big pine trees were in the way. We didn't want to have a new driveway get destroyed by tree roots like the old one did so we waited. Then after we able to purchase the backyard, the driveway came to the top of the list. We prepared by cutting down the two pine trees & grinding up the stumps. We had contacted the local companies that do driveways & got quotes. A long & frustrating process that was. Then a friend recommended Gilson Construction. Turns out I know the owner from my time as a Service Advisor @ Bergstrom & Witt. They came back with an affordable bid & had no issues with our project. They were great to work with & accommodated all our requests. We have no qualms recommending them ourselves. We now have an amazing driveway that has no more flooding issues, will be easy to shovel, & the kids just love to play on. Totally worth it.
The front bucket can be raised and lowered as well as tilted, and the excavator arm on the back is moveable. It's not really a toy, though, as it's quite fragile. The cabin does seat a minifgure, although it's very hard to see inside.
JCB Mark 3 537 CWD at the Welland Steam and Country Show on the 27th July 2014. This backhoe loader model was the forerunner of the iconic JCB family of such machines.
An interesting and somewhat unusual russian backhoe loader.
Does anybody know what make and model is this one?
Other than at Belford Harbor, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a backhoe on a barge. I was going to say that I rarely see it, but I see this one all the time. Two images again, one with all four shots and a second with the ends set up to freeview 3D. Nimslo 3D, Kodak Plus-X (expired 1990s), Divided D-76.
I was hoping this would have a black on orange construction vehicle plate. But it's got an pre-1997 old style black on white plate. It belongs to the BMA.
The water and sewer lines on Church St. in Stirling are being replaced. Today the work arrived in front of my house.

Fidalgo Bay.
In 2013,The Department of Ecology removed old creosote dock pilings and other in-water concrete and metal structures. Dug up and dredged about 10 acres of sediment contaminated with dioxins and wood waste.Dispose of contaminated sediment off-site. Improve the near-shore habitat by reshaping an existing spit and jetty. Connect Fidalgo Bay with the wetland area that was created in 2011. The site was vacant property with abandoned building remnants and debris. A sawmill and wood-box factory, and then a plywood mill, operated on the site for almost a century. Mill features included a hog-fuel boiler, drum storage tank area, transformer yard, above-ground storage tanks containing fuel oil, gasoline, diesel and/or propane, phenolic formaldehyde resin and caustic storage tanks (both used in making plywood glue), a machine shop, a metal shop, and an area for spraying paint and oil.
In 2011 work focused on cleaning up about 6 upland acres. It included removing pilings and other structures to allow excavation of about 33,600 tons of contaminated soil; off-site disposal of the soil, structures and pilings; and backfilling the site with about 39,000 tons of clean soil. Site soil contains elevated concentrations of arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, selenium, silver, zinc, oil-range petroleum hydrocarbons, dioxins, and furans. Groundwater beneath the site does not meet drinking water standards. The water also contains elevated concentrations of arsenic, copper and nickel. Dioxins and wood debris contaminate Marine sediments are found to be contaminated with dioxins and wood debris.
