Description
A Northumberland surface coal mine is the setting for the hydraulic excavator which is currently the biggest in Britain and the biggest Terex model in Europe the Terex O&K RH 200.
It works with advanced noise- and dust-suppression technology to load nearly 50 tonnes at a time with a 26 cubic metre bucket.
At work in a Yorkshire limestone quarry is the largest excavator Caterpillar currently has in Britain.
Only four of these 5130s were ever brought into the country.
A Scottish coal mine yields examples of the R 9350, Liebherr s biggest excavator in Britain, working with the country s largest fleet of Terex TR 100 dump trucks and a big Cat 834H wheeled loader.
Other highlights of this exciting programme are a 340-tonne O&K RH170, the only one in Britain, and an old 480-tonne O&K RH 200 loading Cat 789 trucks.
There is even a quick look at Chevington Collier, a decommissioned Bucyrus-Erie 1260W walking dragline.
As in his other acclaimed DVDs, Steven Vale supplies plenty of information about the machines in his enthusiastic and detailed script narrated by David Holt.
