Scale Model Mining Shovel

This 1/87 scale diecast replica of the CAT 6060 Hydraulic Mining Front Shovel belongs to the High Line Series from DieCast Masters. It is an officially licensed collectible built for adult hobbyists who value accurate heavy-equipment miniatures. The model arrives in the manufacturer's original unopened packaging.

Packaging and Presentation

The shovel ships inside a die-cut foam insert that sits within a full-colour printed metal box, itself protected by a cardboard outer sleeve. The metal box carries machine photographs and specifications, making the package a display piece in its own right. No assembly is required.

Scale Discrepancy Notice

The box is marked 1/50 scale due to a manufacturer printing error, but the model itself is produced to 1/87 (HO) scale. Buyers who need strict 1/50 scale consistency for a layout should look elsewhere. All dimensions listed — 9.25 by 4.125 by 4.5 inches — reflect the true 1/87 size.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the 1/87 scale shovel on my HO layout without damaging the realistic metal tracks?

Place the model on the track bed and secure the diecast chassis with double-sided tape or tiny screws through the undercarriage; the metal tracks are fixed and should not be forced to flex.

Will the movable boom, stick and bucket joints loosen over time and need lubrication?

The joints are tight-fitting diecast pivots designed for occasional posing; no lubrication is required, but handle gently to avoid metal fatigue.

At what point does the 360° rotation bind during repeated posing sessions?

The superstructure rotates freely on a central pin; binding only appears if dust or grit enters the joint, so keep the underside clean.
