Now here's something you don't see everyday on Biglorryblog....got a big engine (you can tell that just by the traditor covers) and a very low slung cab...but what exactly does it do? Well click through here and you'll find out...

It's an XCMG 'TY900' (as if you needed to be told) and I know this thanks to Brian Carlisle who e-mails me to say: Hi Brian, here are some images of a 1000-tonne capacity bridge beam transporter made by XCMG in China. I took these shots at the recent equipment expo in Beijing where I am currently living. Regards, Brian."

And it's quite wide too! Thanks Brian a most unusual thing...look like something Scheuerle might make too. And for the record the TY900 twp BF8M1015CP diesels producing 560hp os so each...driving (assume) hydraulic wheel motors. And would those engines be from Duetz?  .
