5110B Sighting

I took pictures of Trumbull's 5110B on the last two jobs they did on I-99. I will look for them and post.

Those pictures remind me of when we were putting our 5110 togather.The best we ever did with that machine was 463 loads in a 10 hour day.It was loading Cat 773's.We had put sideboards on our bucket.It went from a 10 yds to a thirteen yard machine.

I am not sure where they are working. They are from the Pittsburgh area, Cranberry Township I think. I have heard they are real big, 5130's, 777's 992's.

I think they work a little further south in PA. I know last summer they had their 5130 and 777's on the PA Turnpike near mile marker 70 I think?:beatsme


Makes me wish I had the time to go up there next time I'm home, lots of nice big iron up there.

Yep, its a Deere-Hitachi Special Products(DHSP) Division Roadbuilder. Purpose-built forestry machine; Forestry cab, highwalker undercarriage, carbody protection. They come in 21, 25, 29, and 37 ton sizes in both Deere and Hitachi colors with Roadbuilder, Processor, and several Log Loader configurations.

On a sidenote, you don't see the Cat tracked skidders very often.
