Very nice, you don't have a spare RH200 you want to sell, do you?

great collection. Nice RH200s, i've always wanted to get one of them even though they are difficult to get hold of. Where did you get them from?

Thanks for all the nice remarks about my display. With over 400 models displayed, it is very hard to take pictures of everything. I think I will show a few more pictures. Thanks again.

Kezz,

I have three O&K RH 200's and they all came to me at different times. The first one I bought on ADM Vintage, and the second one was part of a large collection that I bought. The white one, I bought last year at the IMCATS show, and I am told it is one of only 150 in the world. I would someday like to change one into an excavator. Thanks again.

Jason

PS the 789B I have had for 4 or 5 years, and I bought it second hand on the DHS wanted section.

Thanks again.

MINING EXCAVATOR,

The models that you asked about are all discontinued and are getting hard to find. You can still find the 5130 shovel and excavator on Ebay from time to time. The 797 trucks do come up on Ebay, but sell for almost $1,000 each. The O&K RH 200 in Terex white, is rare, and I have only seen one other in my life. It was on Ebay about 3 years ago, and sold for almost $800.00. I bought that one last year at the IMCATS show, and it was not cheap. Good luck on your model hunt.

brc2222,

If I am not mistaken, the green Caterpillar 994 wheel loader is part of the "Arbogast" collection, factory painted by NZG. There were several models painted by NZG in "Arbogast" green.
