Talk:JCB (heavy equipment manufacturer)

message: *The factory in the U.S. is actually located in Pooler, a town outside of Savannah (which I live in). Since Pooler is not a suburb of Savannah, the distinction is necessary. It's located right off highway 80 by the intersection with I-95. --BWD 03:48, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

message: *Please leave this article's history section in list format. In an article which is written to carry information, and not merely for literary effect, there is no need for "best essay style" and "varying the expression". See elegant variation. Also, JCBamford's personal life is so closely intertwined with his factory that the two better be in one list. There is a pointer from J. C. Bamford (person) to J. C. Bamford#History.

message: *JCB's first-ever product was a tipping trailer, but can it be proved that it was hydraulic? A vehicle can be tipping without being hydraulic: e.g. old-type dumpers: I should know: I have worked round plenty of dumpers at a canal restoration site. Anthony Appleyard 08:41, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I remember the first JCB's. They were built on the Fordson Model F, which according to the article was out of production, but was still the predominant, one might almost say, only, UK farm tractor post WWII (I never saw a Model N until much later)
Also by the '60's JCB1 to JCB10 had become ten very large cars - I once saw them in convoy goung to Derby station for some function or another 81.132.114.109 (talk) 15:35, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

message: JCB Insurance Services Ltd is a very small firm that is merely a part of this company, originally formed to provide in-house insurance service  I do not think it warrantsa separate article, I've proposed merging a sentence or two about it here, as an alternative to deletion.

message: Is it accurate to say it was previously JC Bamford? Isn't that still the official company name - according to the JCB copyright notices etc on their website???--93.186.23.86 (talk) 08:15, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

message: There is an urban myth that 'certain people' having deep basements being constructed prefer to leave the JCBs buried therein rather than bringing them to the surface again. To what extent this is the product of 'bash the rich' and 'the tunnel drilling machines' which actually are so buried is anybody's guess. 80.254.147.68 (talk) 16:31, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

message: I'm intending to add some words about JCB research.  I'd appreciate any constructive additional input to what is described as an obscure company. From looking at constituency donations, it does seem to play a disproportionate part in funding Conservative candidates in marginal seats. Regards JRPG (talk) 19:45, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
