Bosun11 537 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 that brings back memories of digging railway banks when i was a youngun with all the tunneling we did iam surprized we are still here , but far play mate thats some dig its good to have sound mates when you need them I know all abouut trenching them railway banks too Topper, by christ you'd have a sweat on not knowing the outcome, young and foolish eh!! But on this topic... Fair play to you boys, you stuck at it and got the right result. We don't here much these days regarding rescue but its good to know lads are willing to pitch in to see a gallant worker safe. Well done all. Quote Link to post
