i saw this ad for wanting a housebus pulled from the ground which it sunk into.

not sure how you'd be best to get it out, buy maybe someone here has the gear?

[T-Boon]

bit of spade work and a little winching and you might be good ?

[Swaney]

Looks like you need that lada that was pulling out 2 landys which someone posted up the other day

my best guess would be a tractor (or 2) and a days spade work - that thing looks heeeeavy!

That one is never going to die out
I would of thought a bulldozer or traxcavator would be the shot.
Can do the spade work and the towing in less than an hour

I can think of one thing a sky crane ( Helicopter) expensive but it will get the job done quickly.
