Wow brings back memories I was a chain man for Amy construction contract 3 and Taylor Woodrow contract 4 of the A27 brighton and hove bypass and Blackwell was the muck shifter and they had the largest fleet of heavy plant in the UK at that time 1990 -1996 including those huge terex TS 24s , cat D8 , and 9s
I've operated the old TS-24 Terex scrapers before and they can haul a shitload of dirt in one pass. The biggest problem is that they drink diesel fuel like a beerdrinker at a football game.
I've spent a few thousand hours in TS24's (Cummins engines) & my biggest gripe, aside from them bouncing in the air when laden was the gear change - 1-2, & 2-3 changes were that harsh it would loosen my fillings🤣🤣🤣

Aah, good old Detroit sound. But load towards spread area - shortest distance loaded
Nice video. The sound off the scraper is awesome 👍

@@peterwalley2355 hell our were 10 speed Allison automatic. They would haul ass.
Why do a 180 AFTER getting loaded? Push in that direction.
I drove one in 1980
The green weenies that's what we called them
THis is enough for the 410hp D9H to push without another dozer to push
THE PUSH D9 AND D6???
Quit using your rear engine till your nearly full.
