cabbyl ushtey Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I seem to remember some time ago a digger was trapped at sea by the incoming tide, possibly Gansey. Can anyone fill me in on the details please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinkydevil Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Wasn't it the airport one out at derbyhaven? http://www.manxforums.com/forums/index.php?/topic/43280-more-funds-for-airport-tractor/ http://www.manxscenes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2819 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silentbob Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 No, there was a 360 lost a track in Gansey earlier than that, instead of doing the standard practise of using the bucket and remaining track to get the thing to safety, it was left to the Sea instead.

jacko Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Yep - if I remember right there was more than one police vehicle involved October `88 that happened. Don`t recall any cars being dumped into the harbour though, but I do remember the police trying to roadblock parliament street with a couple of cars, the guy went through them like a knife through butter in his JCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
