Perfect Dave. In the morning, all the work will be done by the CAT Faries. 😅🤣 Awesome I have some big trucks and excavator too, but you really need a big layout for them. Happy Modelling Mon
Wonder if the front of those trailers pull off . That is how they loaded large equipment . The back into the trailer to lift the load and go . I've got a cat and excavator in N scale . But no truck or trailer . Great gifts Dave . When you get up tomorrow all your dirt work should be done . 🙃
Love your descriptions of the trucks. Really a Eurocentric experience :) The big nose trucks are called conventional trucks and can be with or with out a sleeper berth. The flat nose trucks are called cab overs and they can also have a sleeper berth in the back you access over the dog bone. I drove semi trucks for several years in the USA and managed to drive though every state in the lower 48 except Rhode Island. I pulled the dry vans and flat beds for several company's. Great job that I loved. The black truck looks like a Kenworth and the red truck looks like a Peterbilt. Really nice!
I find a pair of scissors cuts the boxes open easily. Nice models. The blue truck is a Cat day cab(no sleeper compartment), the black truck is a Kenworth, and the red one is a Peterbuilt. They are all what we call over here in Australia "gumboots" as they are in the shape of a gumboot. In contrast, a cab over is just that (what you mostly see in the UK due to length)... also the dozer is transported blade first as it is a wide load and the excavators are loaded forward then the boom is turned around to face rearwards for transport. With excavators the numbers on the side usually tell you what they are.. as in 355L 35.5 Ton operating weight and it is an L series. I used to transport oversize equipment all over Australia.
greatly enjoy following your channel, trucks are blue cat ct660, black kenworth t880s, red peterbilt 579, never dealt with cat,but usednto deliver petes/kenworths. keep vids coming
Very nice! They look great! Not gonna lie, I kinda forgot I sent those haha. They'll make a great addition to the layout. Can't wait to see what they build overnight
I use clear plastic pieces like those as glazing for cabooses, passenger coaches that are unglazed, and for glazing some of the older diesel locomotives like Tyco F and E units, though I must admit that trying to glaze the front windscreens on those things is a pain.
Very nice
Great Trucks very cool.
awesome gifts dave
Great addition to the layout and happy Canida Day. Jersey Bill
Little Toys for Bigger Boys ! 🤣. I’m so jealous! I’m gotta get me some of those 😊.
An rc version would be a great thing for them to make
I bought 3 of these sets, great add ons for my rock quarry area.
Great job on your video

The Red looks like a 2019 Kenworth conventual cab series

Nice trucks, Dave. Cat did make their own highway trucks for roughly 5 years, from 2011 to 2016.
The black truck is a Kenworth. I believe the red one is a Peterbilt.
My friend uses a dab of silicone to hold tractors and other equipment on his trailers
Check proof

I got a cat bulldozer which I mounted on a flat car
Very nice! They look great! Not gonna lie, I kinda forgot I sent those haha. They'll make a great addition to the layout. Can't wait to see what they build overnight
Apparently the ground was too soggy and they need to wait a few weeks.
I had one of the blue cat trucks i turned it into a cat fire truck

Yes, I've done a couple of F unit windows. Very tricky, and not a lot of overlap for the glue.
very nice
Cat does build trucks
Catapilar 6:38
realism tip: dozers face forward, excavators face rear when transporting
Aero dynamics
Try scissors next time but don't run with them. CAT does make their own trucks.
