Any thoughts on what is going on with this 785?

Gas powered for sure. Crazy that the head ache board hoists the tanks. Maybe it's a water truck? Or maybe the gas is used to super heat the box? Fuel tank looks funny also.

Just weird!!

I tried to translate the Rusky but I get jibbirish on this 'Not so' Smart phone.

Had the text translate by a Russian speaking relation : according to him it is a group of gas cylinders , the engine runs on (natural) gas or LPG .
Perhaps the engine is a Cat Industrial gasengine , the article does not describe the engine , others that it is not a diesel engine .
He also states there are also busses with gas cylinders on the roof in some Eastern countries .

As a result of the X-shaped structure, the volume of the tipper body in comparison with the
previous model, increased to 85 m. Cu. (At the gable design - 78 cubic meters). Due to
the improved filtration system pump driving rear axle occurs continuously, thereby
reducing downtime and increased component life. Increase the resources and disk
brakes, which are resistant to "clogging". The new intake gasket and filter simplifies
maintenance and reduces operational costs.


Colour coding is probably different to here, but the red cylinders suggest Hydrogen, though it seems HP CNG comes in all different colors. The dual fuel engine would "probably" be expected to be under heavy loads, and from what I've read, this also suggests Hydrogen.
