Re: Old track loaders Caterpillar 941C

Post #33 by newjcb123uk » Sat Nov 01, 2008 1:00 am

Bought from McCarten Plant sales in Saintfield, this 941C is the machine that first appeared on our Landfill Site over 20 years ago. we kept it as a spare and for part nostalgia, although we would probably never deam about using it for a full days work now. Shes' still very capable tho and I do use it to push the stock pile of muck and rubble on my new house project :) These were as common as excavators that are on sites today, it's amazing just how much the excavator has replaced these workhorses. ;)

HI Martin,

They still have this old girl as part of there heritage collection. She gets wheeled out for the various open days. It's my second favourite JCB machine.

On another note, are Excavators female (like ships)?

Cheers


Philip
