Presented here is the Caterpillar 784C prime mover with TowHaul RGS-225 lowboy trailer. The unique design of the gooseneck allows connecting / disconnecting of the trailer in about 90 seconds thanks to the grab hook design, even if the ground is not level.

TowHaul classic lowboys have proven to be a steady workhorse in open-pit mining operations around the world. Many of the units put into operation since 1990 are still in service to day. With proper maintenance, TowHaul lowboys have been known to outlive most typical mining equipment life cycles.

The TowHaul RGS-225 has a capacity to transport machinery up to 250 tons in weight.
