CAT 5080 front shovel Manufacturer: ERTL Scale: 1:50
Here is the CATERPILLAR 5080 front shovel from ERTL. You can get an idea of the machines size as that man passes beside it
The cab's interior has an operators seat, side control levers, and foot pedals
Large rubber tracks

This machine has quite a hydraulic system, one thing that makes this model allot better than the newer CAT 365C L front shovel in my eyes is that even the shovel has hydraulics for opening and closing it

The boom is fully functional raises, lowers, pulls in, and extends out

Although one heck of a heavy load here's the 5080 in transit on this multi-axled heavy hauler lowboy
Here's a good photo of the CAT front shovel in action loading up a 769D hual truckin just a few scoop fulls
