Bogged JCB JS130 in Elchies Forest about 1985

Photograph courtesy of Douglas Archibald of Banchory.

The JCB JS130 is shown bogged at Elchies Forest, Archiestown in Moray. It appears the machine was running on a mat of branches and timber over very soft peat and has broken through the surface layer and plunged into deep almost liquid peat bog.
