I saw this machine partially in one of our canals.The cab sits about 6 ft. above the wheels.It has a big scoop on front of it for clearing out muck.Never seen one before.

A Muck Raker?

Glade to see there cleaning out that historic canal. I used to live nearby in Falls Twp. Moved to upper Bucks about 45 years ago.

Nice photo--these critters are pretty common in the ditch-cleaning world; I’ve seen several of them at work.
Side note: they look like a lot of fun to run--that’s just the old farmer in me.

These machines look like they can really clean and deepen the canals.

They do look like they would be fun to operate, it looks like you can raise and lower the cab for the conditions.
