did such a machine exist or did I read a number wrong? saw this machine quite a few years ago on a huge concrete pipe job between dallas & ft worth tx it was handling roughly a 12 ft. wide round bottom bucket that fit the pipe od. whether it was doing the actual ditching or just grading the ditch bottom I`m not sure but I am sure it was powered by twin 12 v detroits any one know anything about them?

I believe there was a 1466 but the largest I've ever had to inspect was a 1266. It had two V12 71 engines for power. This was owned by a local company.
