Very nice collection. How many are special runs versus custom made?

@Dumpster,

If it didnt impede the flow of traffic I'd stop take a few pictures of Kokosing repaving state route 57 just south of Route 30. They have milled it, repaired the base and applied the base layer of asphalt. I think that they'll lay the top coat of asphalt some time next week.

I was worried that Kasich would have ODOT low ball the job in an effort to save money but Kokosing appear to be doing an excellant job.

Factory made are:

CAT AP1050 paver NZG
CAT D250E ADT NZG
CAT D9R dozer NZG
CAT 325CL excavator NZG
KW T800W w/lowboy Sword
Pete 357 w/Genesis dump body Sword
Pete 335 mechanic's truck Sword
Chevy Silverado DCP


Everything else was either custom painted or decaled. The Conrad Internationals are a very, very close match to Koko orange, I had a few and just decaled them, could barely tell the difference. Colter did an excellent job repainting the PC2000 and the boom truck, personally love them both.

I didn't realize how many factory painted models there are out there.
