Machine Man

I never thought of a 60tonne Caterpillar 245 excavator as a small machine, but it is compared to this beast of a Liebherr 994 built in 1985.

I was lucky enough to stumble across this marvellous and impressive machine recently, and also even luckier to get a demonstration of its 38litre Cummins KTA V12 diesel engine being started up by the man who restored this 994 to full working order.
