@chugnorrish Thanks. I see that's a war cry from a famous game, where a steamroller is dropped on someone!

Wryyyy

[dummyspitter]

how heavy is that thing then ?

[andrewburbidge]

@dummyspitter I was only passing by and I thought it was a good looking piece of equipment. How heavy it is would take some finding. You'd maybe need the owner's manual. Also, I think water can be added to the 'wheels' to increase the weight. Just as a guess, I'd say from 5 to 15 tons.

[andrewburbidge]

@dummyspitter -- e1r2i3n just gave the weight. From 10 tonnes to 13/14 tonnes.

Its a Germn 'Hamm' 'dead weight' or 'static' type roller.

Hamm are owned by Wirtgen.

@jimmywondersway Thanks for the information. A German one then. It might help someone fine one.

i think it's a hatra...company is dead for many years now

[andrewburbidge]

Yes. It was on the north side of Old Stratford, a village on the edge of Northamptonshire, near Milton Keynes. It was being used for work on the roads of a new housing development there.
