GIANT DIGGERS
Everyone, regardless of age, loves getting to grips with the controls of these giant diggers!
These Komatsu PC55MR-5 tracked excavators are one of the mainstay workhorses of the construction and civil engineering industries, and these specially adapted machines are a firm favourite with Diggerland visitors.
So climb aboard… get a brief one-to-one overview of the machine and its controls from one of the specially trained marshals… and you are good to go!
Scoop up a bucket full of soil, swivel about and dump it… and then scoop up some more!
It seems simple enough… but it is a lot more challenging than it looks!
