Galion and Bucyrus in the US... then there’s Kubota and all those Japanese companies.

In the US, Deere, probably; but the foreigners like like Komatsu, etc.

CAT? The union, global CAT? I thought they were certified PC.

Oh, I misunderstood. I thought they were not supporting the scouts for the right reasons.

I knew it was too good to be true.

In railroad locomotives, that’d be General Electric, unfortunately. (CAT currently owns Electro-Motive Diesel, which used to be GM’s locomotive division.)

As far as giant mining dumptrucks, you have Bucyrus (bought out Terex in 2009), Komatsu, Hitachi and Liebherr.

Biggest competitor as far as bulldozers IIRC is Ingersoll Rand.

Lots of other manufacturers of “genset” diesels too.
