Thanks Greasemonkey,
That does make sense. I just didn't think about rail travel of mined material(s) as being something that CAT would get into. I also didn't know that some mines have their own railways. Sounds like a smart business decision to me.

How did they get the SD70ACe into the exhibition hall because I doubt that they built railroad track and there isn't room for a crane.

We're within hours of flight times to MINExpo! I am very much looking forward to this. Great friends, great food, great show...it'll be a, well for lack of a better word, GREAT trip! New products galore to explore. What's everyone looking forward to? For starters, as a P&H fan I'm interested in hearing more about the P&H 4800XPC. VIVA LAS VEGAS! - Chris

4800XPC? Sounds like a Bucyrus 795? And did that lt2350 that Bryce posted a few pics of earlier wear P&H decals? Rowan.

Joy owns both Letourneau and P&H, but I can't see why a LT loader would feature P&H decals. It could rather features JOY decals instead.

Great photo Gav! I love the shovel cab that Bucyrus went with. I've already heard what the "boys" are thinking. But I want to hear the official sales pitch.  RowanH wrote:And did that lt2350 that Bryce posted a few pics of earlier wear P&H decals?

She has P&H decals on her, and it looks great! Gd10r wrote:Anybody wanna guess how much tire shine will be used? (In my best Rain Man voice...) 3 bottles. Definitely 3 bottles. - Chris

So this is nice, lots of new machines in the works. The 4800XPC, the 2650CX and the new 6120B. Plus Cats new Rock Header and it looks like the new size for haul trucks is going to be 450 tons. 2016 is shaping up to be a good show.

I think the truck size will be a little larger than that based off rated loads being swung from the loading tools. Was talk Komatsu would reinvigorate a loading tool that was touted a few years back also.

I'm sure that's an option in the GE's but NS doesn't take it! Have you been seeing a ton of new UP power in Chi-town? I go thru Erie where GE is and to me it looks like UP ordered about 50 or so new units, they've been going west the past week or so.
