41chevy Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Four to pull and two for added braking I believe. Impressive!Wonder if it came from a closed mine in the States.

General Ike Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Can someone explain how the front 4 rigs work? If it were a train, there would be multiple unit controls in the leading unit that controlled the functions of all the other locomotives in consist. How do these rigs coordinate their power?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Ed Smith1957 B85F 1242 "The General Ike" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/37422-australian-heavy-haul/#findComment-263874 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Horse Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Hah- go to OD's first picture. Think those tie down chains on that bucket are anything but decorations? On another note I wonder how many hydraulic pumps these things have? I imagine one for each function?? Biggest thing I've ever run is a PC 300-can't imagine sensation of curling the bucket on this thing-then again, you are not worried about "feeling" for a buried conduit! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/37422-australian-heavy-haul/#findComment-264183 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly - and they would have to be big at that. Think of the gallons per minute it would take to operate those cylinders.

Red Horse Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 "Big 10-4" on the copper! "Feel" as well as change in engine tone-just think-you are probably 40' from the engine(s)!!
