I had one of these , it’s a 788Case P2AL
Mine was a 99 it had an offset boom . It was a bit of a pig to drive to be honest . This was it working on channel tunnel rail link

Did they make a 888. I seem to remember operating one in the 90s.

Yes they did ! It was a big old girl , the 788 was virtually the same as the previous 688 and 61 before that . The 888 was the next size up same as its predecessor the 81
It was also a handful ! The 61 was the nicest one I drove then the 688

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
also did a 988
and a 1088 ... got a mate who had a 1088 with a knuckle boom/offset... beast of a thing IIRC was 22+t
and a 1188
looked at a couple of 688s when I was duck hunting
would've bought this 788 compact if the seller had ever responded to my inquiries ..... pre finding the 'Drema
