A bit OT in that it has nowt to do with Land Rovers, but today saw me add some good photos to my collection so I thought I'd post them Crossing a valley close to town this morning to do a 5 minute job, a rather large Hitachi hit a bit of a soft spot Really quite deep now this would normally be quite a good photo for the collection but things were to get worse yet!

First attempt to free it using a Cat D5 which just buried it a bit further - the problem being that it was sooo soft that every movement made the Hitachi sink a bit more Having decided that the only way was to dig to hard ground a second (lighter!) Digger was commandeered and started to dig the Hitachi out but had some problems of its own and needed a tug from the D5 Trenching towards hard(er) ground.... By this time the entire machine except for the arm was below ground level and there were some major problems with slop getting into both the cab and the engine compartment Gonna be a while before this grasses over again And success.

The largest gun ever built was the "Gustav Gun" built in Essen, Germany in 1941 by the firm of Friedrich Krupp A.G. Upholding a tradition of naming heavy cannon after family members, the Gustav Gun was named after the invalid head of the Krupp family - Gustav Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach. The strategic weapon of its day, the Gustav Gun was built at the direct order of Adolf Hitler for the express purpose of crushing Maginot Line forts protecting the French frontier. To accomplish this, Krupp designed a giant railway gun weighing 1344 tons with a bore diameter of 800 mm (31.5") and served by a 500 man crew commanded by a major-general.

Two types of projectiles were fired using a 3000lb. charge of smokeless powder: a 10,584 lb. high explosive (HE) shell and a 16,540 lb. concrete-piercing projectile. Craters from the HE shells measured 30-ft. wide and 30-ft. deep while the concrete piercing projectile proved capable of penetrating 264-ft. of reinforced concrete before exploding!
