Man, that is cool! I sure did enjoy watching that. I could never get mine to work. I never realized that the plow on the front extended...I always thought the bulldozer just pushed it out.
A lone amature built the ark! A large group of professionals built the titanic!

This scary thing about the Freight Unloading Depot Video can only be appreciated in the uncut footage...

To get that to work as seen in the video took multiple attempts. The bulldozer blade was very tempermental and needed some hands-on re-setting.

However the best part and sadly it doesn't show on the video was the SMOKE...yes SMOKE. I only got a couple runs outta the thing before it basically choked, but while it did run the ozone-smell was intense. The mechanism is inside and under the depot...during action the depot's roof began emitting SMOKE. It looked like a couple cigarettes were inside the depot and the smoke would roll out from under the roof!!!

But remember...its' TYCO...OF COURSE!

I too always assumed that the whole bulldozer moved - like the "giant forklift" on the piggyback loader.

But I can't believe how SLOW that thing was! Maybe there was something wrong with it (seeing as how it smoked too), or did they all run that way?

Hey Tony. I was actually able to see the smoke. It's when the dozer is backing up after pushing the second pipe off the flatbed. I noticed that yesterday.
