   Definitely looks like that Komatsu is in the Oil Sands in Alberta.

   The excavator in the first picture is actually at Grasberg in Indonesia if I am not mistaken. The Komatsu is in Canada at Suncor in the oilsands. These two pictures are of KMC Mining's H740OS shovel being moved to Syncrude's North Mine. Brian

   These are slightly smaller, but still a fairly large machine. Once again, in the oilsands, but not my pictures. Brian

   You'd need oil tanker anchor chain for that!!

   They use ratchet binders. On our sites, snap binders have been banned. Brian

    Those are some big chunks of iron to be haulin. Wonder if the trailer axles turn or are ridged ?

    In the last pictures of the EX1800, the trailer axles turn. They are actually controlled by remote control from the pick up right behind the trailer. Brian
