CAT 953B track loader

Manufacturer: NZG

Scale: 1:50

Here is NZG's CAT 953B track loader, you can get an idea of

how big it is by comparing it to that man beside the machine

The enclosed cab can be removed, exposing seat, to put in an operator

Skinny rubber tracks that crawl very easily

View of the rear showing radiator grille and exhaust pipe, as well

as the counter weight and a/c unit behind the cab

Photo to show the other side

Front view with the boom raised to show the toothed bucket

The bucket can be lowered to dig into the ground...

...tilted back to scoop a big load...

...and raised to dump

Although a simple basic model this isn't a bad model from NZG

and as you can see here it works out well for a lowboy load

Here's an in action shot of the CAT 953B clearing out this lot of

land preparing for what will soon become a residential site
