Model History and Information: The Cat 797F is a mining truck with a nominal rated payload of 400 US tons (363 tonnes), powered by a Cat C175-20 engine. Caterpillar lists it for hauling copper, coal, gold, iron ore or overburden, and it catalogs a Tier 4 Final configuration of the model. This 1:50 release depicts that Tier 4 version in a copper finish instead of Cat yellow, with black tires. The product photos show it as a special edition: the dark presentation box is marked Cat 797F Tier 4 Mining Truck Special Edition, and the model sits on a black display base with an etched Caterpillar backplate and a matching nameplate.
