Dont think so, I remember you posted one of Redredreds pics a while back of a 5500 superstucture and i think it ccame in at 120t set up like this i think there lucky to get 100t on these units. Im thinking either 18-1900 or a 2500 superstructure.

Edit: A friend of mine has told me that its on his workplace and a 3600 upperstructure. I do beleive this is Major Overload.

It has to do with the "Green Power". The muffler that burns the soot won't fit under the cab if the pipes are set up like this so they put the steps there instead. If they had another tank there the muffler would be under the bunk and pipes bihind the bunk, not enough room for the pipes at back of bunk when the pin on trailer is slid right back.

Im not sure where this went. Mt Owen units came out of Mt Thorely when this one went out Mt Thorely only had the Bulga 797's in. I beleive These were built in Tutt Bryants yard at Muswellbrook. Rhino do you know what shovels/hoes are being used at Clermont?

Clermont coal has a fleet of 5x Hitachi EX3600's and 2x EX5500-6's and a P&H 4100XPC shovel which they use to load a conveyor belt that trucks the overburden out of the pit. They also have a LeTourneau L-1850 loader and a fleet of 30x Komatsu 930E trucks and a fleet of 20 830E trucks, the 930E truck fleet is going to be replaced later this year with a fleet of 50x 960E trucks due to an agreement with Komatsu and Rio tinto. I believe that they also have a fleet of 5X Cat 777F watercarts. They have to cat 16M graders and to cat 24M's for grading. I am unsure about what bulldozers they have but i am aussming D11T's and D10T's. They also have a massive earthmoving fleet that that does work above the pit with cat 637G's and Cat 657G's. So if your going to work there your bound see huge equipment and huge fleets.
