csg[16] - extraction
The DG6 is being used to extract a steam road locomotive that has become bogged down in a soft patch in the arena. (The DG6 and driver had zero difficulty with this task)

Near where I lived as a child a sports field had been made over a creek junction and a former paddock of fruit trees. About a year later a man attempted to drive his steam roller across the sports field to his back fence. However it got bogged to the chassis in the centre of the field to the great interest of a watching crowd of men and boys. It was there for, as far as I can remember, a couple of months. This cost the man many brass fittings and as reported in the local free newspaper a large fine. I wasn't around when it was extracted so I don't know how it was done.
