摘要：	Civil engineering and specialist plant hire business Waitings Limited has added a 150t gtw double-drive STGO Category 3 Scania 650 S heavy haulage prime mover to its Cliburn, (near Penrith), Cumbria-based fleet. Waitings operate a large fleet of earthmoving equipment up to 70-tonnes in weight. One of the excavators regularly transported by the truck is a specially-commissioned, custom candy pink-painted JCB JS220 excavator, a proportion of the earnings from which are regularly donated to a number of UK cancer charities. 'The idea of a fund-raising excavator came to us around five years ago," explains Waitings Limited director of operations, Adrian Ash. "We wanted to give something back to the community, and this seemed like an ideal opportunity. In addition to its regular work, the excavator has appeared at a number of shows and events, and to date has raised in excess of £20,000- that's something of which we are immensely proud. Tragically our MD Victoria Waiting herself passed away due to cancer not long after we commissioned the machine, which was terribly sad. With that, we wish to retain the 'pink' theme through the business in memory and as a lasting tribute."
