Have not seen any 475's in the UK Ian, the biggest K dozer I've seen is a 375 operated by Blackwells, it was push loading Cat 631G's in the North East!

(EDIT):- Am I correct in thinking there was a 475 in the UK that went to Greece (Cyprus) to work?

Regards

Got 6 of them on my plate.

Not to bad. Some ideas are real good, Some real bad.

Make a decent dump dozer but not a favourite for hanging walls.

Mike you are right. There was a 475 in Northern Ireland (I think) that went out to Greece. No others in the UK. Blackwell's have a 375 but not sure if there are any others?

I remember seeing a 375 working in Ireland in an earthmovers article a few years back!
