Overloaded Rear-Dumper

Rear Dumper Into Hopper

That's not something you see every day - a Cat truck painted white!

793 vs Drill Rig

Received these photos a couple of weeks ago, but with no description or location. Judging by the marks behind the truck, it looked like it might have just come around a corner.

Downshifting in a 793

Lots of people send it photos to this blog. (Thank you!). Normally,  I check them to see if I already have them in my collection, and then put them into the rotation. Sometimes, the photos are so amazing that I just have to put them up on the site right away.

This is one of those times. These photos were sent in this week by a reader. In it, he says that the operator of this 793 downshifted from sixth gear to first. The engine didn't like it. Some rebuilding of the engine may be necessary.

Otherwise known as 'speed loading the truck'.

These photos were sent in a few weeks ago by a Mining Mayhem reader. Thanks!
