While the very hot Saturday and wet Sunday kept afternoon crowds away, it would be fair to say our first event for the Caterpillar Centennial year was a success, showcasing modern Next Generation Cat products alongside historical versions. Our new centennial flags looked great and will help make us stand out at various shows throughout this year. Merchandise and other materials are still on their way, so looking forward to our events in the next few months. Special thanks to Marty, Rohan and John again for your support at the show.
Building on the success of our previous attendance over the last two years to support William Adams sponsership of the Geelong Classic Truck & Machinery Show, we will start our 2025 Caterpillar centenary celebrations on January 11th & 12th at this years show. Our new 100 year event flags will be unfurled for the first time and a updated range of scale models available, unfortunately the limited edition centenary merchandise will not ship in time, but it is always a great family event.
WE NEED SOME TRACTORS FOR DISPLAY PLEASE - bump in by 5pm Friday 10th Jan and bump out after 2pm on Sunday 12th Jan - please contact Rohan Burns 0408 524 528 if you can help out, as we seek to ensure a professional display to kick off 2025.
Chapter 19 has secured Caterpillar brand approval for a number of limited edition licensed products to compliment the approved range of 100 year merchandise for the 2025 centenary celebrations. Featuring the official 100 years Caterpillar logo and ACMOC logo caps will be available in two styles. Jackets and polo's will also include the heritage wavy Caterpillar logo on the sleeve.

Our 2024 AGM was hosted and sponsored by Caterpillar of Australia and was an outstanding event. Over 60 members and guests were treated to tours of the automation at the Melbourne Parts Distribution Centre and the exceptional Technical Training Centre including the diesel and gas engine powerhouse where master technicians are trained with working engines simulating captive land and sea propulsion and prime and standby power generation in both diesel and gas configurations including a massive 3606 (127 litre/7,762 cu. in.) gas engine. It is also a centre for excellence in mechanical failure analysis with a vast collection of failed iron and metallurgical training aids which were on display, along with the facility’s restored Aussie built 1960 No.12E grader 21F195.
