Hi,

I attach some photos of an "exhausted" Volvo BM A35 articulated dump truck working in a quarry in Salamanca, Spain.

I hope you all enjoy the photos...

Cheers,

Francisco.

:lol: :claphands: We had some A35C`s up untill a few years ago.They were 1997`s,well worn,no A/C,comfort etc,but they would plod on all day.I`ve been on them on many jobs in all conditions & they just kept going.They would run rings around the A25D`s & A30Ds on the same jobs.
They brought 4 A30D`s with greedy boards & tailgates to replace them in 2004,but they gave such good service they kept them till 2007.
All of our ADTs are now D`s & E`s,with a few Cat :roll: 725`s & 740`s.The last of our A40C`s were sold this year.
2004 Hit ZX350,9556 hrs
2007 ZX350/3,6000 hrs,now with just over 10000 hrs!!!
