pity dumptrucks are taking over the uk.when it could be done better and quicker by scrapers in some cases.

This looks like D10N or D10R pushing a 631C scraper

I agree i love scrapers a lot more than trucks. Plus scrapers dump the material in nice lifts.

Cat D10N & 631C

Mind those tyres with that wide blade!

True…but scrapers become uneconomical when the haul distance rises above about a thousand metres. I guess, if your paying for the loads, it makes a difference.

Best combo I’ve used is a Cat D6C towing an Onion Box Scraper. Both pretty indestuctible, but it was more art than science to operate well.

The CCU could be a bitch though.

Fuck the Scraper.
The D10 is far more intresting and enjoyable to watch.
The 4 horseman of the apocalypse wouldnt stop that.

D11 > D10 pr even the D12 which were made only as a test model and had its own ripper ripped on the first try, back in 1988.

I haven’t seen a scraper being used in years. I see farm tractors with tow scrapers now.

what century is this old junk in?

@chechnya It’s not a bad idea but there’s a problem with that, ” Time “

@Strogenforcer
on bigger jobs they run “push pull”
two operators running two twin engine 657 cat scrapers lock up and fill both cans at the same time almost like a train then unlock and blow

@markdmy What’s it matter ? I bet you’d shit your pants if you ran a 3 lever scraper
