It is going to take a long time before we see some of the old pipelayers retire. I worked on a 572C last winter and what a great chore looking at the Cat legacy DVD's for parts and service info on an old piece of equipment.

Keep it coming. This is a great case for when sidebooms should be used. Overhead lines, well no crane is getting in there, so sidebooms.

Nice shots Jason. Glad the guard didn't go senior on your butt, they may not run fast but they can swing like lightning, LOL!!!!
Oh, did she have a gun??? If she did it was good you didn't get her riled because she would have probably got your knee caps shooting for your head, LOL!!!!
