Is it wrong that I want to know less about the train derailment and more about the Caterpillar sideboom? 🤔

D8dude Caterpillar has been and still is a great American company. We face more competition than ever, but we are hanging in.  The vintage ones take the cake

I can relate to that, 20L drums of oil don't go very far on D8's either 😬.
The 977L is a mighty machine in competent hands. In the right conditions track loaders are a very productive piece of equipment.
I know nothing about sidebooms, is the 583 based on the D8 tractor? What series of tractor are they?
