Mighty Machines

Deeno the tractor and Dozer the bulldozer work on a demolition site. Dynamite sends a smokestack crumbling to the ground. Grab your hard hat and let’s get rollin’!

Two Canadian Pacific and Canadian National freight trains named Shunty and Freddie explain how work goes on in the train yard, including switching, putting the cars on the right train and transporting materials long distances.

At the Airport: Big commercial planes get checked over in the hanger before they are loaded with baggage, receive catering supplies, get filled with jet fuel and are pushed back from their gate.

The Mighty Machines are hard at work making tracks from the train yard, to the city, and on the highway! It all starts with the tough trains that haul cars and freight across the country. It’s no easy job to get them chuggin’! Then, Buddy the Bus shows us how he and his friends get people to work and school each day! The “O” trains, the GO trains, the subway trains and the street cars all rumble down the rails to do their part! Dig it out over here; pile it up over there! Life is a highway for Sammy the big orange shovel, Dozer and Scooper. They’re all pitching in to build a new road. So many Mighty Machines are needed to roll out a road for all the cars, trucks and buses that travel each day. All aboard for an adventure in railways and roadways!

At the Garbage Dump:  City garbage trucks pick up the trash from the curb and deliver it to the transfer station where it’s rammed into special trucks to go to the landfill. Enormous tractors roll and compact the garbage before it gets covered with dirt.

Building, blasting and crushing! It’s all in a day’s work for front-end loaders, diggers and dozers! Huge shovels dig foundations, a towering crane builds a skyscraper, dynamite sends a smokestack crumbling to the ground, and a colossal crusher grinds up rock. So, grab your hard hat, and let’s get rollin’!
