Скачать или смотреть Short, Early Euclid Haul Truck

Truck Haulage came to Bingham canyon mine in 1963. This was when large haul truck development was taking place. Companies like Wabco, Unit Rig, K W Dark, and Euclid were building trucks, experimenting, and improving them, constantly making them larger and larger. Pictures show an experimental Euclid truck they used at the mine, R-X rear dump hauler, known as the R-105, it came around the late 1960s. It was unique, being four-wheel-drive with an articulated frame and a pair of tires on each 4 wheels. The truck was good for downhill hauls because of its aggressive retard system, but it had a bad suspension that made it bounce. These are the only 2 pictures I have of this truck we had for a short time.
