Re: Dozers CAT D 10 T

On the french photo forum there are literally thousands of fantastic earthmoving pictures and a good 6 or 7 contractors with big spreads of 631/D10. The french seem to ave made an art out of that combo just like the UK has done in mining with 777/RH120. Roger Martin features quite a lot on that forum.
