Many thanks for the kind words guys i will look at posting some more photos soon.
Banks have another D8L that i am aware of, it was working at the Fox Covert OCCS a couple of years ago, the D8L's Banks have are used to push the scrapers up the spoil heaps while they are unloading, the last couple of sites where i've seen scrapers at work they have used D9R/T machies to push load the 637's and 631's. (I did see a Komatsu 375 push loading Blackwell 637/G's and one of the fitters said the operator thought the D9 was a better machine for pushing this size scrapers).
I am not sure who Banks bought the scrapers off, if anyone knows i too would be interested to find out.
Nicky i would very much like to see photos of cat D9/10/L's, they are two machines i have seen working many years ago but have not got any photos of! I know Blackwells have a D9H and L and would like to get some photos of these machines, if anyone knows where these are working i would like to know!
