I love that everything in this show has a label on it. Makes it far more interesting for non-experts.
Agreed. I'd like to be close enough to Pause and read too. Cool stuff! Thanks, Matt.
I love that it's never clickbait
Wait a minute, you mean the equipment show, not diesel creek. Anyway.....
Agreed.
That was awesome thanks a lot really appreciate that
41 years ago my parents bought some undeveloped land and my Dad was able to bring equipment from work to use on it. As a 5 year old getting access to see and ride on scrapers, dozers, FEL's and graders, it made a huge impression on me, both in appreciating the machinery and also appreciating that my Dad (and Mom) literally built the place from the ground up. Sets a guy up for life with that experience.
I wish I grew up like you but this century just keeps failing us all
Great comment

Good afternoon,
My name is Matt, also, and I am a 67 year old Marine who used to be an equipment operator when I was in the Corps. I think it is really neat that you find, repair and operate these pieces of engineer equipment that are my age - and the age of the stuff I used to run. Way back in the early 70's when I was a young Jarhead, learning the job, the Corps big dozer was a Terex 82-30. The track loader was the 850 Case, and the articulated wheel loader was a Terex 72-31. Our motor grader was an Adams/ Wabco. Almost everything was powered with various 71 or 53 series Detroit diesels. Keep up the good work.
Dad had a 52 Sterling....he loved that truck. He was a hay hauler in SoCal. That truck has been saved and restored. I tracked it down thru five owners....it's now in the Houston area. Someday I'm going to meet up again with it at some truck show. I'm not the expert, but White Moters bought out Sterling and Autocar around 1950. They kept Autocar and liquidated Sterling. White did similar things in the farming equipment area. There were plenty of Sterlings in the East....many were chain drive dump trucks. The ones in the West where usually road trucks.
There's just something so beautiful about seeing old iron being saved and sometimes restored
My old man worked at a Western Canada coal mine that ran the Terex 33-19 "Titan" haul truck. He said that while it could haul a lot, the turning radius was large enough that designing roads for it was a pain in the ass/uneconomical a lot of times. That truck now resides in Sparwood, British Columbia, Canada. Worth a stop if in the area. Thanks for showing us a cool Terex!
I’ve been rethinking my whole life before I die and I know what I would have done different. I would have bought a dozer just after a pickup truck. And had one the rest of my life. As I paid a peace of equipment off. I’d buy another and gather all the toys I could have. For my retirement I’d set em in a huge sand box 80 acres of pits, pond digs, dirt piles, and charge people by the hour to play on them. Run a amusement park in the woods for people who wanted to play and have fun. Don’t have to move em just need a big shop to fix my toys and watch people play on them with camaras or drones. I’ve seen this done with trucking schools I’d have equipment schools. That would be my ultimate success, let everyone feel as I did
Seeing that old Euclid brought back memories of being 18/19 years old in 1968/69 driving 13 hour night shifts 7 days a week in a local gravel pit. The noise out of the stack right in front of you was wicked. Even rolled a fully loaded larger one upside down one night in the rain when roadside gave way. O to be young again!
This was an absolutely amazing video! There was some really rare and unique equipment that is rarely seen. BTW, the guy running the Lima cable shovel at the 45 minute mark really knew how to operate.
Absolutely, a production operator.🙂
This was a trip down my dim memory lane,, I ran a few of those work horses back in the 50's and early 1960's, that pan and D-7 Cat out there working with the pusher Cat was my brother and I back in the day, my brother was always stuck on the pusher Cat and ate a lot of dirt, his teeth was was always white and only thing you could see after two hours on the job, thank you for taking me on this trip
I like your attitude on saving the old history of heavy equipment. I've operated just about every piece of equipment you can think of except a crane. I was wondering when you are going to get started on your dream garage? I think the build would be pretty interesting. Really enjoy watching your show, thanks for the entertainment and the learning from your videos. Just shows your never too old to learn. I'm 70.
Thank you Matt. If only I was A rich man.😊😊😊Christine looks so good. This is a paradise for retired machines.
One of your best ever episodes - great images and sound.
When I was a little boy there was a job site not far from where I lived. For the complete summer I was there watching D9’s pull scrapers all day long. My mom would have to pull me away for supper every night!
Enjoyed seeing some old equipment from the early years in my career. Mind you, I am not that old, it is just that many contractors in the 60's and 70's still used many of these machines. It was especially nice to see a proficient operator of the cable shovel. The old operators were as smooth as operators of hydraulic machines today. Thanks.
Watching the cable cranes brings back good and bad memories. They were fun to operate, but with open cabs. The bad memories are when I had to evaluate new hires, who said they knew how to run a crane. They’d run the cables off the drum, (forgetting to push the brake in, when the bucket opened, smash the bucket when they dropped it too fast, swing to fast and hit stuff. I’d spend all day fixing what they screwed up!
That was neat seeing Christine hanging out with family. Thank you Matt for sharing this show with us.
Matt, that was awesome. Thanks for sharing it. Those truly are the machines that built America. We live in such a disposable world so it is good to see that there are people, like you and them, who are willing to preserve our history.
When you were operating that slope cutting machine, the power on that hydraulic boom arm the one time you lifted a little low on the dirt pile, man it moved that ENTIRE side of dirt wall there.. holy coy that's some power.. It looks like you were having a blast there, I love messing around with old outdated machinery that got us to where we are today! America wasn't built on only dreams, but the hard working engineers and industrial laborers that got those machines up and running!! Amazing!
you can see the evolution time line of some of the machinery in this show -- so glad there are those who are working to preserve old steel
Hi Matt thanks for going to that show and filming it, its been about 15 years or more since I was there last, like the National pike show that has grown a lot. those two Letourneau scrapers the tractor drawn one goes behind a D4, and the D pull was an air born one, and flown into the Pacific islands in a glider to build the air strips and what not, but real nice job covering it. Dave D.
Nothing more satisfying that watching a dozer help push load scrapers, I used to luv operating them both in my youth. Blowing soot sky high all day from sunrise to sunset.
There is a Jaques-Lorain face shovel at the Clermont mining museum in Queensland Australia. It worked at the nearby Blair Athol coal mine. The mine had a 100ft coal seam.
What a great day! Getting to meet you in person and seeing all the big toys. The video gives a really great view of just how much fun everyone can have coming out to these live demos.
It's very cool that folks allow others to give the machines a run. What a great community. Keep the awesome content coming, Matt.
Cool to see. Thanks for taking us along take care
Awesome tractor show. Amazing old machines. Thanks for sharing!
I worked in the taconite mines in Northeastern Minnesota for a summer while I was going to college. One day I worked in the shop as a laborer. It was impressive to see the 270 ton production trucks hanging from a crane while they worked on the electric motors that powered the wheels. When you can't prop your elbow up on the wheel to lean against it you know you're next to a big machine.
It was a fun show! Thanks for taking time to chat with us and sharing some stickers. I hope the drone survived the crash. Cheers, 👍😁
They deserve to be preserved. That's your new slogan "Deserve to Preserve"
I love the cable driven stuff. These are the machines that can build mega-dams, thousands of miles of virgin interstate highways, make-shift runways to win a war, fight fires, etc. If you had to use them and maintain them, you could do it.
Thanks for coming to Ohio
A fun video! I always appreciate you taking us along on your trips to the auction sites, quarry's, and the old equipment gatherings! This was one of the best! Great to see Christine there, she shows very well! Thanks Matt, be well and be safe!
Thanks for the tour of the show, some really neat vintage and unique equipment there. It's especially great to see them in action, fun to see.Thank You Matt! Always enjoy your channel, you sharing your work and interests is greatly appreciated. May good fortune continue to be with you.
The show looked awesome. I'm glad you took a video of the show. Thanks, Matt.
Thanks for taking us to the shows. It's neat to see the evolutionary steps these machines went through to get to the machines we see today.
It’s nice to see old construction equipment working. Thank you for sharing Matt.
The control levers in those old machines are similar to the workings of the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain! haha ha.
Thanks for recording your visit to this event, really enjoy seeing the machines used by all those dedicated men who built America.
So nice to see old machinery revived for posterity. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks for the scraper footage, Matt. We called them pans. My Grandfather was a county engineer, and when I was young I went with him all over the county checking on jobs. I fondly recall watching the pans and the push cats doing their thing.
The guy running that Lima shovel was doing an awesome job.
Love all the old machines if only we could go back in time and watch everything run as they should, thank you for taking us on this journey would love to be there
I look at a lot of those old slow moving antiques and even today they can move a whole lot more dirt than you can by hand with a shovel. Nice to watch.
It was great to meet you in person and to finally see Christine in person. Thank you for the stickers!!!
Back in the early 70's we took a college field trip to western Kentucky to an open pit coal mine that supplied coal to a TVA power plant at Paradise, KY. We went to see the worlds biggest, I think it was a drag line to remove the over burden from the coal seam. It was electric operated. Never saw it cleary because of too many beverages. What an awesome sight. Trees looked like toothpicks!
Sounds like it could’ve been the Marion 6360 (The Captain) or the Marion 5960-M (Big Digger)
@@jakealter5504 I have no idea. I do remember there were large electrical cables trailing behind. It Was being used to remove the over burden.
@@jackgreen412 that’s what they would’ve been used for
Great show Matt. Looked like you n DP had a blast. Definitely stuff you rarely see at other events. Sure enjoyed that ya took us along. Thanx !!👍
The 19 might've had a 6-110 if it was original, the Unit had a 3-71. I ran one just like it with the 36 inch pads and all. Good show and Frank was slinging some dirt! Thanks and BLESSINGS!
The HD19 had a 6/71 the HD20 had a 6/110
@@mariebennett5739 There was an outfit here that had a couple of 16's and they WERE 6-71's. Thanks! I remembered it was strange to hear a 2-cycle winding up in a dozer but they had HD-5's with 2-71's to.
Man we made some cool stuff back in the day. America was such a great engineering powerhouse.
What a fantastic show with such a massive variety of gear. Thanks for the look around.
Great video, Matt. Thanks for taking us along. And a special "Thank You" for finding all the oddball equipment--some really nifty stuff there! 😃🪝⚙⛓
Matt, thank you, thank you, thank you, for this. I love seeing these machines at work. Living here in Great Britain, there are very few old restored pieces of American machines about. Great video loved it. My favourites, amongst others, the Link Belt and that huge Terex. Nice to see "Christine" joining in the fun!!!! See Ya!!!
My heart goes to the D-6. When I was around 4 or 5 years old, I sat on the tool box while my Grandfather operated one of his D-6's. Eventually, around 7 years old, I was operating it on my Grandfather's property. I wasn't tall and strong enough to operate his Austin-Western Master 99 grader. 4 wheel drive/steering, ALL hydraulics and 90% of options tied to it.
It was great to meet ya! Thanks for capturing all the action we missed on Saturday!
What a way to start the day. A Diesel Creek video and a cup of strong coffee. What more could a feller ask for?
A shag or was your question rhetorical?😂
@@R.Sole88109 Bacon & eggs would be nice, too.
The thumbnail had me exited you’d bought that monster 😂😂
Imagine the opening credits of that thing driving down your drive with its wheels either side of the road!!
think Matt would have to take out a few more trees for that :D
lol, i did too
@@thesteelrodent1796 thanks for all of these I'm 63 and see for the first time in my life thanks
For not being a full blown resto the Gallion looks great, real nice job on the hydraulic lines. keep up the good work. I'm 75 and it's nice to see some of the machines I learned on.
Ty brother for the adventure I'm retired operator nice seeing old iron and black smoke wish I could smell the diesel ty again
Dear Matt James,
That was an interesting show you’ve visited with Christine and we did love to see all that old stuff running. Thanks for sharing this in a kind of documentary you’ve made. We wish you lots of success with all your ongoing projects and we wish you, Eva Marie, your cute little boy and your complete family all the happiness of the world plus we send you love from the Netherlands.
Best regards,
Willeke and Dick de Graaff
The scraper/dozer teamwork was art
If you like that you should see 3 twin engine triple push-pull team working.
Three twin engine machines helping each other and only one loads and then the next one and then the next one

Thank you for taking us along!
I worked with Cherry Hill construction for about 5 years. I got to work with and see a bunch of old equipment like this. Great times thanks for sharing this Matt👍
Thanks for posting new content, I needed a reason to procrastinate cleaning up after the storm.
The last few seconds of the videos are always a treat!!! Didnt expect the drone crash XD! Love the content keep up the good work!
Lots of unique equipment that was specialized for job type, interesting. Thanx Matt.🙂
That Terex 33-15 is impressive, even more is the Terex 33-19 only one was made and it worked for many years in canada until it was retired, restored and put on display. But the Belaz 75710 with two 65 liter engines and 4600 HP and a payload capacity of 450-500 tons is the modern day king.
Excellent video bro so thanks for letting us tag along. Sure is some impressive machinery there from days gone by. Christine looked right at home. Safe travels
My grandfather was in on the beginning of this club, he designed the belt buckle for the club, it’s great to see the equipment being saved . It’s part of are industrial history.
Some very cool machines, thanks for showing and explaining exactly what I want to know .
I enjoy seeing old machinery still in operation. Shows how well made things were back in the day. A couple of questions... 1. Did you get a new truck or was that Dirt Perfect's? 2. You may have made a slip up early in the video when filming the small dozer. You said that would be something you'd want for your kid. That's the first I've heard you mention about children. I would certainly hope that you would have one (or more) to pass along your knowledge. Looking forward to the next "fix it up" video.
Thanks for the ride-along Matt. A thing that strikes me about the old gear is that it appears to be more about ingenuity and finesse to get the most out of what they had to work with. Back at the farm the latest bread crumb, a few bits of new timber, has me hopeful your "dream shop" is well under way. 👍
Young man, there are no words to properly thank you for this great video with a trip down memory lane. That first little tractor with the scraper on the trailer at the beginning of this video looks like the setup I recently saw on a documentary about the building of the Alaska Highway by the US Army and the Corps of Engineering. I can’t go to these shows due to the distance but you bring them to my living room, thanks.
In the summer of 1966, I was working for Irvin F. Jensen of Sioux City, IA, driving dry batch dump truck at various locations in Iowa. We would back into the "skip" of a mixer like the one shown at 30:53 five times for each load as there were 4 additional gated in the dump bed, although the mixer may have been larger than the one shown. This brings back many memories from summers while in college.
Honestly one of the best videos I've seen on TH-cam in a long time so much variation, interesting and unique machinery. Seeing some of the drag line machines work you can really appreciate how revolutionary, the hydraulic machines must have been to the industry.
Thanks for taking the time to film and edit the videos
Nice machines, Matt.
TY for the walk around.
Tom 😎
Great show it's nice seeing some of the old ones still working thank you for sharing five stars my friend
Really nice of you to share this Matt. I'm 69 and there's equipment I've never seen in this event. Brings back treasured old memories.
So cool seeing this rudimentary construction equipment. You can’t get where you are going until you’ve seen where you have been.
Morning Matt!! Very cool video, I really like vintage equipment...I grew up in Michigan, I won't say the town, but it was at the time the gravel capital of the world, I remember those Euclid's & Terexes, at full throttle you could hear those singing Detroit s at our house, we lived about four miles by the way the crow flies from American Agg. It will be nice when you get the glass back in Christine....Be safe!!!! God Bless!!!
Just AWESOME! I could watch a video like this for hours. The various pieces of "old" equipment give you an idea of what it took, physically and mentally, to be an Operator of Heavy Equipment back in the day. Thanks Matt!
Great show, thanks for taking me along!
So many fascinating machines, incredible people have put in the effort to keep them in operation, thanks for a great video Matt!
Wow love to see the older machines still running. Great video Matt
I love seeing old machines working like they did when they were new, cool video, love watching you rescue old machines, I can't wait to see you do another!
Love that yellow dozer pulling that yellow scraper!! What a gem 💎 Thanks for sharing Matt👍🇺🇸
Matt, one of your best exhibition videos.
Of course, having DP in it always makes it better.
Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic show today. You did a good. The little puppy bulldozers are a hoot. Small tracked vehicles always crack me up for some reason.
Thanks for taking us along🤗😎🤗😎
Thank you for the tag along, Matt! Lots of real old iron there. Loved seeing them work!
Man you'll be able to move a lot of dirt on the farm with that beast
The problem would be having a front end loader that can reach over the sides of the dump bucket, that thing is high !
@@bertgrau3934 he's got a crane somewhere lol
Let’s take a moment of silence for the drone crash at the very end.
Super interesting! You need cover that show regularly. The machines that pioneered the machines that built this country. Special use, one of a kind machines that fathered today's line! They need preserved.
It is excellent to see and watch the equipment that build this country runing and doing their thing, those were truly awesome operators back then because it took a lot of talent to run that old stuff.
loved the video and all the old machines my favorite is the Mead Mighty Mouse very cool kinda makes the old heart skip a beat seeing these old relics working like new. Once again Matt thank you for the awesome video i always look forward to the next one keep them coming.
That's some interesting and very unique old iron! So glad to see it not in a scrap heap!!!!!
Outstanding video from the show. Lots of cool old iron out there.
Thanks Matt, always enjoy seeing old iron being restored, loved, and even better still operational
you guys are lucky to get to play with the toys. the thing i miss most from the army is operating all the gear right to its limit. thanks again for the content.
and you should put polycarbonate windows in kristine. its stronger, flexible and you can cut it with an angle grinder or saw.
This was a fun video! So many cool machines iv never seen before! Thank you for the video! Sorry about your drone!
Great coverage of the show. I love that old iron. Thanks for bringing us along
hey Matt thx for bringing us along to the show.... love stuff like this ❤️ my husband was a mechanic idk what he's doing nowadays (& don't care) 🤣 but anyways I love big machinery and watching them in action
😊😊😊
funny how all ex's sound the same...
Very nice! I love seeing all of the old equipment and seeing it in action! The hit and miss Engines are awesome! That was a really rough landing at 50:39 , OUCH! Set us down more gentle next time please! Thanks Matt and thumbs UP! 👍
