1:50th Scale Caterpillar 797B Mining Truck

 

This is the Caterpillar 797B Mining Truck model from NZG. The model is well made for it's size with many of the details found on the real machine. The model features working suspension and steering and has a fully detailed cab.

 

This is another good model from NZG. It is not as detailed as the Liebherr T282B model and is about the same physical size. the paint finish is good and the decals are authentically reproduced

 

 This is a welcomed addition to the other Caterpillar Mining models. It will be interesting to compare the detail of the 797B with the new Cat 793D model that will be released from Norscot later this year.
