Very good video. However, the 657B's pale in comparison to Caterpillar's 666B, widely regarded as the best scraper ever made. The 666B can also take nice even cuts and can quickly heap up to 54 cubic yards of dirt per load. Sadly, Caterpillar discontinued the 666B in 1979 but a few examples still exist in running condition. Maybe some 666B's will be restored to like-new condition and be displayed in museums or even reused in construction, mines, oil sands, and quarries.

Looks live they are taking nice even cuts. They get a full load quickly, and they keep the cut nice and neat.
