While scouting the interweb for an old equipment flame. {The Hough D-50 with Aircraft Canopy}. Spent many winters in upstate NY pushing snow in that frigidly cold Hough D-50. I came across an honest to God Hough D-500 in operation. Had to share it. This first video ,the Hough D-500 sounds a lot better. The second video not so much... Enjoy with coffee. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmwzGDn7-ss https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icQmunpaDzI

The one I started my heavy equipment career as a youngster about 25 years ago. Ours had a bucket with the Aircraft style sliding canopy{that didn't work BTW}. In winter a frigid Gasoline exhaust leaking into the cab. Still I have a fondness for that machine. I think my Boss wanted to know if I'd destroy the old Hough {being a first time operator} before the huge Case Loader for Snow removal. Can't remember the Case model number W- something, but it was big.

Thanks for posting, sounds and looks like it has a 16v71na under the hood. I think Winzinger out of South Jersey still has one in their green and white Livery.

Yup, that first video is how I imagined the D-500 would sound. The second video of one ,well she needs a little work under the hood. Bet it rides like a Tank though,rough.

Interresting machine, thanks for sharing, 41!! Max.
Cat 245.....Now and Forever I am looking for industrial auction brochures from Ritchie Bros, Miller & Miller, Forke Bros, First Team Auction, Max Rouse, etc from the 70's, 80's and 90's.I am a collector and heavy equipment enthusiast and these pamphlets are loaded with nice pictures of cleaned and freshly painted equipment.Thet don't have much value once the sale is over but they are a great help to me in preserving the memory of machines that are no longer being built.Please, help my hobby by looking in your old storage boxes and file folders for these old auction sale brochures.Your help is much appreciated.
