Caterpillar 797
You think your Toyota Tundra truck is all that big? Wait till you see the Caterpillar 797. It is 12 times bigger – 50 feet long, 24 feet tall (51 feet raised), and 31 feet wide. It is used in the mining industry with cargo capacity is roughly 400 tons.
NASA’s Space Shuttle Crawler Transporters
They are equipped with two 2,750 hp V16 diesel engines, but have speeds of only 2 miles per hour. They are 131 feet long, 114 feet wide, and over 20 feet tall.
LeTourneau’s TC-497 Overland Train
It was commissioned by the US Government during the 1950s as a backup for conventional trains in case the Russians invaded and started taking out the railways. The train was over 30 feet tall and 570 feet long.
SPMT (Self-Propelled Modular Transporter)
A single isn’t that impressive, but they can be clamped together infinitely, reaching unimaginable lengths and being able to carry some heavy loads, such as a 14,350-ton oil platform.
Herrenknecht EPB Shield S-300
Schwerer Gustav
Big Muskie
Five F60 conveyor bridges
Bagger 293
It is able to move up to 8.5 million cubic feet of earth per day and requires a crew of 5 to operate, which isn’t really that much for a contraption as gargantuan as this.
