Used to see and hear that combination going through Chippenham...... lovely sound of all six hundred Cats purring together 😍
Even nicer when half a dozen went through in convoy 😁

The early ones, or the early American one at least had a Detroit 2Stroke for a different soundtrack

Good to hear the odd 2 stroke diesel 🙂 though my favourite sound was always the Scammell tank transporters with the big Rolls 🥰 ......... and I didn't think I'd ever hear that sound of reserves of power again until I heard the big Cat going up a hill.

One of the few times I feel that European emission standards worked for me 🤭
