  • Taking a close look at 2 terex TS24's scrapers. These 2 machines are B10 builds which means they are British build TS24's. How they made their way to my area will probably never be known. Hopefully they will run again one day!

    I ran an s24 loadrunner 36 years ago, and i retired recently but took on a summer job, and i will be running one again this week, lol at 60 years of age i might be a bit slower. They have 3 s24 all converted to 60 series detroit engines rated at 540 hp.

      Well I was hauling dirt today, what a machine she was built to haul dirt a distance. We are bringing 1.5 miles of new road to 6 inch below, it doesn't take long moving twice as much dirt as the 621s working there.

    I've operated 14's and 24's and they'll go like Jeeps! The 24 had a 12-V in the front and a 6-71 in the rear with a straight pipe. The 14's had 4-71's in both ends. I liked a rough short haul. They'll beat you to death on a long one and YES, the'll run again. Thanks! And I still can't hear!

      Thats great! These were British built that why they had the 8-71 front and rear. As of today they are still sitting in the same spot. I talk to the owner regularly and he swears he’s going to get them running again so finger crossed. Thanks for watching.

    I watched these TS-24s , brand new building road in the mountains of alberta. A D 9 was pushing another D9 with one ripper shank in rock, and then they were pushing a new TS-24 through that rock, the bowl on the buggie was just smoking and bulging and screaming, i as the mechanic was just watching in disbelief. A year later those machines were junk, unrepairable and used for parts

    Very interesting
    Would have been better without music

      The music is there because there is no audio at all when recording slow motion so it’s that or dead silence. To answer your other question no they won’t run without a lot of work to many parts missing.

      @@Ironmerchant As a young mechanic I was fortunate to attend a bulldozer school and tour the Terex factories in Hudson Ohio. They had a 1/4scale Loadrunner scraper on the frame test facility subjecting it to all sorts of forces which was impressive. 1980 I remember.
