A rare surviving British-built Foden 4350 twin-axle articulated unit W/ a period ex-Wilkinson’s twin-axle ‘ExpressLiner’ solid trailer on the back. Registration “E657 OWT”.
This lorry has been pictured + photographed in various places quite often, and there are several other photos of this very same truck W/ trailer here on Flickr. This truck, however, has been sat in a layby outside the town of York for at least an entire year now, and it doesn’t look like it has moved within that time. However, the vehicle is still currently taxed and MOT’d up-to-date, and is said to still be in regular use. A caravan and a few other vehicles are usually parked behind the trailer unit, which are often filled to the brim with old toys and boxes, etc. I am not sure why this is still sitting in this same layby, or if it has moved at all, and which may have been parked back in the exact same spot since. I wonder what sort of haulage work it’d undertake nowadays.
Edit; it wasn’t until I arrived home and reviewed the photos that I noticed the figure in the background.
The exterior of Völklinger Hütte in daylight. Rusted pipes and tanks stand out against a deep blue sky, with colors emphasizing corrosion patterns and industrial scale.
A vintage Gradall excavator that rested for many years at the intersection of Ranch Road and U.S. 119 in Dunbar Township, Pennsylvania. It is no longer there. Warner and Swasey acquired the patent rights to manufacture the Gradall telescopic boom excavator from Ray and Koop Ferwerda in 1946. This has the Warner & Swasey logo on the rear, which means it was built before 1980 when the company was sold to Bendix Corporation. Now Gradall Industries currently exists as its own company, in New Philadelphia, Ohio. They continue to make a variety of heavy equipment including excavators.

This now retired Hulett Ore Remover stands in tribute to Cleveland's industrial heritage on the West Bank of the Flats entertainment district. It provides an interesting backdrop for the bright lights, loud music and beautiful people wearing as little clothing as they can get away with. The left to right, top to bottom orientation reminds me of a downward sloping graph, which to me represents the decline in heavy industry that has occurred here over the years. This image is the third installment in my one man, one lens Portrait of a City project.

Tower Bridge is a London icon normally seen with its bascules in the down position so traffic can cross the bridge. But it does open about 800 times a year courtesy of two huge hydraulic lifts that raise the two bascules in about 75 seconds.
We were lucky enough to see it raised on Sunday so that two tugs could pull an Indian frigate down the Thames from its recent mooring beside HMS Belfast.
So here you can see three pieces of heavy machinery, the Bridge itself, the frigate and the tug.
Week 32 Heavy machinery for the 52 weeks group
I thought we'd be harvesting the wheat in Devon, but it wasn't ready. Just as well they decided to bring the combine out where I was staying in Wiltshire this morning as I hardly had to leave the house. Lucky for me since the theme for week 32 on 52 Weeks: the 2024 Edition was "Heavy Machinery" (set by me ironically)

A dramatic black-and-white photograph of a hydraulic industrial claw resting against a time-worn wall. The play of shadows and textures evokes a sense of quiet after intense labor. This image captures the beauty in decay and the raw aesthetics of forgotten industry, blending geometry, grime, and grit into a poetic mechanical still life.
