Here is a pic of a Komatsu D45-s tracked loader. It still gets an outing now and then and is in great condition.

Wow that's in amazing condition

Where is that machine situated ?? and who owns it ?

It belongs to a groundworker/ house builder called O'Brien Homes. They work across Scotland. It is apparently one of the first machines that the owner bought and he does not want to get rid of it.

Well I am kind of guessing here but it sounds as if you are living in Scotland then

Be nice to hear a bit about yourself in the member introductions section

Are you an operator or in the game at all or just interested in machines ??

Never seen one of those before.

I've only ever seen two in photos before this one and never seen one out at work so to speak.

There don't seem to be many Komatsu loaders in preservation.
