Can anyone help me out with updates on 6280s? I think #6 is with Don Woodfin now, #10 is in New Zealand, #13 is with Tolson now (I think), and #16 is with Southview Forest Services and is currently for sale on Forestech.

# 07 is owned by alpine in Campbell River now.

This one was rebuilt by Madill not too many years ago. Can anyone decipher the mumbo jumbo on that plate?

Some photos of the 7280C that I chase on, it's a 1988 and has a KTA525 Cummins. The one with the black boom is a 7280B that our crew fills in on sometimes, I think it's a 1985 and also has a KTA. As an added bonus here's a hat I bought recently.

Here's an American 7675 line loader sitting in camp here in Stafford Lake. Has a 6-71 Detroit, but not sure what's in the car body. We also have an 1825-C, was bought new in 1981 or 1982 I was told. Not sure what it has for power as there's a tarp over the engine, but looks like a either a 6-71 or some kinda Cummins. I'll be posting some videos to Youtube of these two machines soon.

Hey Larry good to see you on here! This is Blake's buddy Andy. I've been working for Benwest for a while now and I believe they still have both yarders listed here. I'll have to check the VIN plates when I see GY1 (7280C) and GY3 (7280B) again, but I usually work on GY2 (7280C) so here's the VIN plate for it. I've heard it's a 1988 but could be wrong, maybe you might have some info. Hope all is well Larry!
