Bulldozer shite…


Recommended Posts

Bit niche, but any fans of industrial earth moving yellow things here - must be, shirley?!

Keep seeing this thing and thinking it looks absolutely ancient - is it a relic?

To be pedantic that's actually a tracked loader rather than a bulldozer specifically a Cat 941B of mid 1970's vintage.

I watch most of Diesel Creek's videos on YouTube along with a few other channels as for some reason it is entertaining to watch people work on equipment that I am highly unlikely to ever need to own or operate.

Hell yes!

I love bulldozers, diggers, dumpers… anything like that really. Loved watching them as a kid and never really grown out of it!

Id love to have an old dozer or something but am too poor to have any land so it’ll never happen sadly. I can live it through Matt’s (DieselCreek) eyes though. Brilliant channel on YouTube if you’ve not seen it.

There were two routes from town to my grandparents, I always wanted to go past the Der-Der shed. (In a pram, Mum pushing, past the council depot)

Brilliant, thanking you! I assumed it was 60s/70s or thereabouts, looks like it belongs in the background of a Dirty Harry film!

I always wanted an International crawler TD6 with drott 4 in 1 loader. This was caused by watching one at work on a building site my father managed.

I settled for a 1978 JCB 3C MkIII with 4 in 1 bucket, because I am aware of how badly a crawler can tare up grass when turning.  Truth is we have used the front forks far more that the front bucket. and the rear arm even more.

You are not alone in watching Diesel Creek...........

Scrappy Sam is great too. The Mack truck he’s got is lovely.
