The latest edition of BAGGERMODELLE will be out soon! The magazine presses are running while you are reading this. The Magazine will be available half way January 2016.

In this issue, among other interesting articles, a special about the Caterpillar 666 Scraper which is recently released from Classic Construction Models in their limited edition diecast series in 1:48th scale.

The single engine Caterpillar 660 Scraper shared many parts with the twin powered Caterpillar 666 as well as similar capacity: 40 yards struck and 54 yards heaped. Equipped with a 560 HP V8 engine and the proven self-adjusting power-shift transmission, the Caterpillar 660 Scraper could reach a top speed of 42 mph. This 55 ton and nearly 60 foot long machine was a very capable earth mover, though the most efficient way to obtain maximum fills included the assistance of two Caterpillar D9’s or similar dozers. A contractor’s favorite.

Last but not least some Breaking news from Dutch Soil: IMC Models has reproduced The Nooteboom OSDS 44-03WEB Semi lowloader a highly innovative trailer in scale 1:50. With steered axle, suspension, ramps and removeable panels as well as many more features all details of the real trailer can be found on this high quality diecast scale model.

I'm sure that this new type of trailer will find its many Caterpillar (Wheel Loader) fans among the heavy haulage enthusiasts. The first version comes coupled to a beautiful DAF XF106 tractor in the legendary Nooteboom Redline decoration.
